I'm trying really hard to act normal
My friend caught two little tadpoles is a ditch puddle, and just kept them in a bowl (about 1/4 gallon) fpr about a month. She wanted to get rid of them, so I said I would take them and set up an old 10 gallon for them (I thought they were still tadpoles...didn't know they changed so fast!). She told me they were frogs....turns out they are toads. They have lost most of their tails, and are in full toad form. I had set up the tank for frog tadpoles, so I had to make some changes when we got home.
Anyway, my questions are (since I've never had toads/frogs before) should I have a filter or atleast airstone in the water section for them, or will changing the water every other day or so be sufficient? What should I feed them? Will frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp work (she was feeding them fish flakes)? I would like to let them go when they get a little bigger (right now they are only the size of my thumbnail SO CUTE!)...will they be able to figure out how to get food etc. if they've been in "captivity"?
Should it be a completely dry tank, or should I have water in the bottom for them?
Just one more animal for me to become fond of....
