indoor tadpole pond
Ways to get into trouble when it's too hot to work
outside for long: -take a spare 2 gallon Eclipse aquarium and set it up in the bathroom on the (generous) vanity -add some treated tap water and fill up with pond water -add several anacharis -add some aquarium decorations (clean) -scoop up some tadpoles in a bucket -add tadpoles to "pond" -Wait to see what happens. I get a gadzillion tadpoles in my inground pond then most disappear and I never get to see what they turn into. So this is the solution. I'm not filtering the water (did include a bubble wall) but I monitor it, mostly by smell, and will probably do a careful partial water change every week or so. The tadpoles seem happy. I feed them some algae flakes I use for my tropical fish but they also can be seen working on the tank sides and the decorations. The light is on during the day and I turn it off at night.
