My African Dwarf Frogs laid eggs! If you click on the photo and then click on it twice to enlarge it, you 'll get a really good view of the eggs.

Cool! How long until you have tadpoles? ---

I’m guessing never because the other fish and shrimp have already eaten most of the eggs and if by some miracle one does become a tadpole, he won’t last long! ---

I don’t actually mind too much. Sure it would be super cute and fun to see tadpoles but raising baby budgies took 3 months and it almost killed me. Raising tadpoles can take 6 months and they aren’t even full grown for a year. Ain’t nobody got time for that! ---

I kept African frogs when I was young, but they took fish. ---

I had one cherry shrimp that sneaked in with some plants last year. One day I saw the frogs feasting on its body.
