ADF Breeding

[Lance M.]

About two days ago I noticed that my two ADF's were mating. I only hav etwo and I never thought one would be male and the other would be female. I was wonder if anyone had any info on how these frogs breed or what I can do. I know they lay eggs and then they hatch into tadpoles and then they transform into frogs. Just wondering when they would lay the eggs or were a good place would be for them and how to raise the tadpoles (wouldn't they get sucked up by the filter?).

You can get a sponge to cover the filter intake. Many people who raise fish fry use that method. However, they do have up to 100 babies. If you are willing to raise all these frogs and know for sure that you can find them a good LFS/home to go to, then you'll need to remove the parents and any other fish that might be in that tank. Here is a link that might help you out some more;
