Default Where to get potassium permanganate, and will it hurt frog eggs?

No, I was asking what to treat the plants with before putting them into the
pond. In the meantime I stuck them in a kiddy pool and the frogs found
them. I'm tryihg NOT to kill the frogs.

So where do I get this stuff to treat the platnts? Didn't see

anything at
Lowes or Home Depot. The aquarium store maybe?

Got up this morning and found frog eggs all over everything in the

kiddy
pool where I put the new plants to quarantine them and pick the snails

off.
I saw two little brownish copper colored frogs about the size of the

tree
frogs that live in the pecan trees over by the kiddy pool last

night--LOUD
little suckers too. Should I just leave the plants alone for now,

until
the eggs hatch? Should I go ahead and use the PP? IF I put the

plants in
the pond with the eggs still on them will the three Rosy Red minnows

eat the
eggs?

Thanks so very much for all the information and help!

Surely you're not saying you want to kill off the frogs' eggs? Are you?
Be an organic gardener - don't use that PP!

Hell's bells, I hope not. I would give my eyeteeth to have those frogs
in my garden!
