Is your tadpole still alive? I have a 3 week old in a 2.5 gal plant tank right now and I hope he makes it. But this is my 3rd attempt at raising them and it is extremely difficult. My tadpole was hatched from an egg. I have 5 adult ADFs in a 15 gal. I removed a few of the eggs (they float on top of the water after they are laid until they find a place to achor themselves, so they are easy to remove). 3 hatched but so far only one of them is still alive. I feed mine frozen baby brine shrimp and First bites fish food but I believe the applesnails in this tank eat that and the frog lives on microorganisms that the applesnails help create. I never see him go after the food when I add it so I only put a tiny amount in every other day.
