Hey Froggers,
Well it took my green and bronze auratus a bit of time to finally lay eggs, but now after 5 clutches (over the course of 2 months) the eggs are still going bad. From past pairs of frogs, it sometimes took 2-3 clutches until they got it right, but 5 seems a bit much, especially since these are large 12-14 egg clutches.
In terms of the most recent clutch, the eggs after one day began to loose shape and took on the form of an ellipse. But, they seem to be doing the same thing as the last clutch which remained completely black for 7 days. Any suggestions? Could it be the water i'm spraying the frogs with? I filter the water using a brita and put some dechlorinator in it (just started that after the second clutch), but still no luck. I even feed them the Rephasy Vitamins, etc.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,
Craig and Nikki
