Found one this morning that probably died overnight.
====================================
What about their natural food? Do they have enough to eat? There are so
many tadpoles in one of my 150 gallon kiddy pools that I am feeding them
some egg yolk and flake foods. There simply isn't enough natural food for
that many tadpoles. Could yours be starving?


They look chubby enough...but then I'm not all that well versed on
tadpole fashion trends.

What would they prefer to eat?

There are 15-20 water hyacinths in the pond, plus I feed the fish
twice a day and there are always a few pellets left floating around
that eventually sink.

I didn't even know I had tadpoles in the main pond until they started
dying.

However, there are now several bazillion eggs floating around, so I
know I'll have some soon.
