pollywogs
Some very sexy frogs left hundreds of pollywogs in one of my in-ground 150
gallon kiddy pools. They soon looked like they were getting a bit unhealthy (not enough algae) so I tried feeding them some flakes and pellets. They weren't too nuts about the softened pellets but went bouncers for the flakes. They swim upside-down and suck them right in. The rosy-reds have to move fast to get their share. I'm using rosy reds to keep the mosquito larvae down this year. -- -:¦:- *.· ´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´ .·´ -:¦:- * CAROL * -:¦:- -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´* -:¦:- -:¦:- |

Give them some boiled egg yolk. They love it. On Fri, 7 May 2004 21:38:26 -0500, "~ Windsong ~" wrote: Some very sexy frogs left hundreds of pollywogs in one of my in-ground 150 gallon kiddy pools.

pollywogs
I boiled some lettuce, cooled it and threw it in there. (in the pond)
I wasn't standing upright yet before they started going at it. The tads in the aquarium love flake goldfish food, boiled and cooled egg yolk and boiled and cooled lettuce. The inside guys out of the same egg batch are 4-5 times larger than the ones in the pond. On Sat, 8 May 2004 23:46:21 -0500, "~ Windsong ~" wrote: "jammer" wrote in message .. .
