sorry youtube is taking sweet time on approving the vid of a calling frog ahahah
Nice vid! Love the call pum's make..

I'm pretty new to the hobby (1+ year), and only own a few frogs.. never heard any calls.
Well, I was lucky enough to pick up a male basti at a recent show.. and man, that thing doesn't shut up! hehe I don't mind tho..

Congratulation on your success with them! Love the shot of the tad going for a ride! Hope they are good parents for you.
update, well the tad that i was able to watch in the brom has now disappeared, and in its place are nematodes :( everywhere i have read state these are harmeless. so i assume that they are there after a failed tad? IDK but very disapointed is all. i think that even the frogs are disapointed as calling has subsided a bit. i read that it is almost impossible to remove them, but any suggestions to better my success are appriciated.
I have almost nil experience with the tiny frogs, but I have read that some people do away with broms altogether and replace them with film canisters so that eggs/tads can be easily removed from the viv.
i was doing some night time flash lighting in the vivs when i saw a little red face through the foggy glass looking at me from a brom leaf near the center of the brom. after taking a second look i thought it was my male covered in slime.. but then i realized it was WAY too small.... then it was gone. i realized it was an almost froglet peaking its head out working on its lungs. YES!!! hopefully hes healthy!
well now that i read the post i put up on 7/26 and seeing the little guy today i realize that there is a timeline issue! so i saw developed front legs, clearly sitting out of the water (by a good bit) but i couldnt see where the tail has been absorbed or what stage it was at? all i know is that in 30 days i SERIOUSLY doubt that he was from this clutch on 7/26? so that propose a question... Did my pair mate while they had a tad in the water???? also i should add they we only added to the tank on 7/15

(sorry i know it was like taking a picture of big foot, he is the orange red dot on the bottom left side)

Oh!!!! It's a full grown froglet making big jumps from the middle of the leaf back to the center1.5 to 2"... He looks just like the male!
