    Frogs?

    Frogs? Are they ok in the system.

    Since I transferred to a water only system I have had a Palawan Frog take up residence. they haven't laid any eggs yet but they sure do love the water. I know they will help with some insects if tadpoles develop will it be ok for them to live int he grow beds?

    What do the tadpoles eat? Would they eat the fish poop?

    I don't know about this frogs behavior. Could eat fry or fingerlings, but pee and poop of just about any species will feed plants. Lets hope they don't croak

    they will definitely benefit the growbeds, keeping your bugs and pests down. and depending on your fish, they will become natural food.

    Man, frogs leave behind the biggest, fattest poops I have seen from any animal of comparable size...
