nope sorry, ive only got a small number of tadpoles and want those to replace a couple of frogs which passed over winter. my adult whistlers look like they may breed soon, if so then yes will probably have some. while im on the tadpole photo buzz, here's another. day/2 old and 2/3week olds, eating leaf,

my turtle pond uncovered hardly ever gets under 18C over summer. if its a reasonably sized pond shouldnt drop in temp too much at night.. on sunny days upto 30 at a guess. top layer of water would be anyway, guppies survived summer and bred well, they appeared to bask alot. top layer of water gets warmest from the sun etc.

seen some neat indoor turtle ponds online. heating would be similar to heating a fish room id imagine. best to insulate and heat the entire room imo.

Insect Direct replied to Tabz's topic in Reptiles and Amphibians
Turtle pond cover took a beating in a storm a few weeks ago. Then a sparrow somehow got in, dog tried to chase it and did a bit more damage :roll:. Anyway finally tidied it up again this avo. Use to be coverd in fine bird netting, went for plastic this time, should be ok. -
Has anyone succesfully rid their tank of Ramshorn snails?
Insect Direct replied to hovmoller's topic in Freshwater
if its covered in snails by the next morning. then your overfeeding the plecos = food for snails, result, heaps of snails. i like them, i use to put them in my tanks but they never multiplied considerably :-? -

pretty sure theyre eggs??? either that or poop, but i hatched some smaller yet similar things from the little housemoths recently. so im pretty sure they are eggs.... my mother was given it (to pass onto me) presumably already dead but apparently the moth came alive the other night,and those little black things were in the container come the next morning. housemoths often do the same if stuck in a container ive found..
