What do I feed our new tadpole!!?
We ordered a grow-a-frog kit, got our tadpole in the mail today and have misplaced its food. Says they eat continuously by filtering the water, so will it die if I give it sea monkey food until the real food replacement comes in the mail?

Grow A Frog
Grow A Frog
- EACH
Grow a Frog Kit Experience aquaculture–grow your own frog from a tadpole to adulthood. This kit contains the aquarium, food, instructions and a coupon. Send the coupon off and receive your tadpole in the mail. Watch him grow into the cutest little frog. The translucent skin of the tadpole allows you to see the inner organs. Keep him with the goldfish, he’s harmless and never leaves the water. A gift that brings joy for years. Ages 4 years and above. Not for children under 3 years: small parts: choking hazard. Made in USA Watching a creature grow from birth to maturity is a special science lesson that most urban children seldom experience. The process of metamorphosis is especially fascinating. The Grow A Frog kit comes with a see-through 3.5-by-4.5-inch plastic aquarium, a small bag of tadpole food and another of nutri-rocks, a piece of fake seaweed, and a detailed handbook with directions. Send in the mail-ready card and within a few weeks your child will receive a special tadpole grown in a Florida lab. (Many guarantees are put forth in the directions about the safe, humane mailing process.) The translucent skin of the tadpoles allows children to see the inner organs. Adult frogs have an average lifespan of five years but the record is 15 years. These special frogs live full-time in fresh water. Fresh spring water is required in the tadpole stage. –Lair Showalter, mother and elementary school teacher

Allergic to Dwarf Frog food, frozen blood worms… Now what?
My daughter has one of those tiny dwarf frogs in her aquarium. She’s had him for about 4 years now, and he eats (thawed) frozen blood worms every other day from a brine shrimp net. For the first several years that we had him, I was the one who fed him, and I developed a horrible allergy to the blood worms. It severely affects my eyes and makes me extremely congested. So my daughter took over feeding the frog, but now she’s getting allergic reactions as well. It makes her skin break out and affects her breathing. It’s probably not safe for us to keep this frog, but we feel sorry for him. He’s used to our tank and our feeding methods… What are our options? Would a pet store take him back? Would that be cruel of us to try to find him a new home? What’s your advice? Thanks!

betta and his tail??
my betta does not have fin rot (i made sure of this) but he had been eating his tail!! i heard this is caused by boredom, but he has plenty of live plants, and a dwarf frog frog ( i made sure is was not clawed…) for company. i do weekly water changes of 25%. i treated for tail rot incase i just couldn’t see the tail-rot and incase this was what was bothering him, but its not. he loves to chomp on his tail, blow a couple bubblies for his small bubble nest, swim alittle, them eat his tail again. i feed him freeze dried blood worms and freeze dried brine shrimp, and the occasional pea. what should i do? his beautiful orange tail that was once soo long is only about half an inch long 
just out of curiousity, does any one else have this coloration on their betta? mine has a black body, with a stripe of turquoise on its sides. the black of the body blends into his bright orange fins and tail, and in the creases of his tail and fins are more tortoise stripes.
catxcatx thank you, u have good info. the coloration in the second pic is similar, but the blue is brighter, and the yellow is orange, ant it is a delta tail. but the coloration is very close!!
