Well the other day I spotted a fresh clutch of 9 eggs in my D. pumilio Nancy terrarium Smile

thought hmm thats good but it wasnt the end of the glee Laughing

I found a developing clutch right under my nose that I had obviously missed for around a week or so Embarassed

so now I have 9 eggs developing and 7-8 tadpoles wriggling around on a bromeliad leaf Very Happy

Would snap a picture but I only have the phone cam right now Mad

Thanks every one.

I added a few film cases for extra tad depositation sites so I am hoping they use them... This will be thier second (and third i guess) clutch the first one didnt make it but they were in a QT tub so I wasnt expecting or hoping they would go the full distance.

I set a few film cases pointing toward the front of the tank so I may get to watch the entire proccess as the female pumilio feed thier tadpoles with infertile eggs thus the term obligate egg feeders Wink
