Name: Litoria caerulea or the White's Tree Frog is named for Herpetologist. Caerulea is latin for heavenly blue, though not all frogs in this species are blue. Other names for this species include Dumpy tree frog and Australian Green Tree Frog.
Housing: These tadpoles can get relatively big (3/4"+). At the time of metamorphosis most froglets will be between 3/4" long but can deviate from this. Because the size of these frog tadpoles is considerably smaller than other groups of frogs you can house about 2 tadpoles per gallon of water. Most water coming into contact with an amphibian should be treated with dechlorinator to neutralize any chlorine or chloramines present. This process can be skipped if you are starting with RO/DI water but this will need to be reconstituted and preferably made into tadpole tea using tannins from leaf litter. Water temperature should remain over 76 F and not exceed 85 F. Growth rates of these tadpoles will depend on temperature and food availability. These tadpoles can eat a myriad of foods but primarily are fed Josh's Frogs Tree Frog Tadpole food with supplemental feeding including things like repashy's soilent green and blood worms. Depending on density of tadpoles, feeding frequency, and temperature, water changes will need to be as frequent as once a day to as infrequent as once a week.
