Day 71

I moved 5 more froglets into the holding tank and there 4 more on the way within the next two days. I've held off moving them for as long as I could in order to avoid a rising ammonia level in the holding tank while I'm waiting for the new tank divider to arrive for the 10 gallon aquarium in two days on Saturday. Once the divider arrives, all of the froglets in the holding tank will be moved to their own section of the 10 gallon froglet tank on the far side from the filter. At that point, I should be able to directly move any froglets with tails to the holding tank and then to the divided section of the froglet tank after a few days.

I'm still considering when to move the largest froglets to a separated section of the main tank soon. I'll be testing out feeding them some of the adult sinking pellets tomorrow and then I'll test out how they handle a higher flow rate on the filter now that they've grown so much. They're very close to being large enough to be the first group to be brought to the wholesaler. The wholesaler will only take them on Saturdays, which means the first group will likely head out next Saturday, July 14th, unless anyone would like a frog themselves.

The tadpole feeding schedule continues to be adjusted due to the decreasing numbers of tadpoles. The schedule has been two feedings of 7 ml of tadpole suspension a few hours apart for the past week but it looks like that's a bit too much still from the amount of tadpole powder being left on the bottom of the aquarium during the daily cleaning. I may try reducing feedings to 5 ml of tadpole suspension twice a day starting tomorrow.

Current Totals

1 - 3 gallon
13 - 5 gallon (Holding Tank)
11 - 10 gallon (Froglet Tank)
55 - 20 gallon (Tadpole Tank)
