Some of the larger species can
and may take larger feeder insects than indicated
°
You
can also try to feed tadpoles small amounts of fish food and frozen
mosquito larvae, red gnat, blood worm, daphnia, spirulina algae, ...
keep in mind that Epipedobates
and Phyllobates tadpoles are more herbivorous that Dendrobates tadpoles
¤
Feed
by first tapping the culture on the top, this will force the flies to
the bottom. Remove the cover and tap the flies into a plastic bag
with dust. If you are going to be gone for a few days, just remove
the paper towel and replace the lid and place the culture in the
vivarium. Wrap the culture in a wet paper towel to prevent the
frogs from seeing the flies and trying to feed through the glass.

Place
a section of tree fern bark that is about 2" by 2" into the
springtail culture. The springtails will move into the tree fern
and then the section of bark can be placed into the frog's enclosure.
The frogs can then feed upon the springtails at their leisure.
Another method used to feed springtails is to culture the springtails in
a soil mix and then place a small portion of the mix into the culture.
Also if a soil substrate is used in the enclosure, springtails can be
introduced into the substrate.
Ä
Take the entire plant
that the culture was grown on and place it on the bottom of your tank in
a horizontal fashion to allow the frog’s access to the aphids
