Re: [GSAS-Member] Sept Auction.... tadpole question

["Clifford Miller" <clifford@clevergeek.com>]

I don't think you need to worry yet.  None of the ones in my outdoor pond
(which are also with a bunch of Steev's koi) are showing any sign of
changing over, and they pretty much constantly graze on the algae.  The
few remaining indoor tadpoles seem to eat fish flakes and crushed pellets
with at every feeding, and a few are showing swelling near the base of the
tail, which I would assume means legs will soon be starting to show.

The largest ones here are probably 2" or so, but there are still a number
that are smaller than that.
