a tadpole for how long?!
I just had a lone E. tricolor (Phantasmal Dart Frog) tadpole get its back legs about 2 months after the rest of its siblings had already come out of the water! I had just left it in one of the plastic sweater boxes that I raise my tads in, kind of expecting it to pack it in at some point in time, when to my surprise it just kept on going. I fed it the spirulina flakes and Sera Micron food that my tadpoles get, and this morning it had back legs. I still expect it might end up with spindly front legs, but I'm pulling for him/her just the same. Anybody else ever had tads go so far past the time when they should have morphed into froglets?
