Lmao i dont know how these guys made it, luck must be good to them. This tank has been under the deck at the edge for awhile i just noticed it has tadpoles in it. It was to grow duckweed in it which i forgot about, i just grabbed a handful from the woods with a mcdonalds cup i found down there :blink: Well i got duckweed alot of it and i guess some frog eggs were in with the duck weed. Only thing that kept that tank filled was rain water and this thing i know sits in the sun like all day. I found the tank in time there was like no water in. I just added water. I actually dont even know how many are in the tank since its just dark green water maybe 10.

Oh i found this guy too in tank yesterday. I left the tank go again a week without checking it lol opps, time goes by fast <.<
I have never seen a green frog this small before, it might cause he lived in a 20 gallon tank lol

That water i checked also gets like really hot too, i went looking where i found the duckweed and sure enough there are tadpoles but there not even close in size or have legs. I guess the water being so warm in the tank accelerated there growth by alot

They're certainly resilient little guys!

They're amazing, aren't they!

I still have 1 tadpole left in my small pond - he didn't morph properly. Only ever grew one back leg and no front legs at all.

Oh wow I actually cleaned the tank finally on my day off from work. There is 16 alive, there was like 5 dead ones with them, Umm there is a crayfish in there too and 3 snails lol.

Oh and to give credit where it is due, it was a burgerking cup lmao, its still sitting next to the tank
