Thanks, I seen the eggs in the can just kept procrastinating on pulling them.
I was in the process of cooking dinner and trying to get another calling video of the benedicta when I noticed him sporting a tad on his back. My Dart Den is also my Man Cave. I keep my camera in there so I get plenty of opportunities to take pics if I feel like it. Most the time I will see the perfect shot and by the time I get my camera the frog has moved.

Its clay and would become waterlogged and slough off the background if done with a water feature unfortunately.

Ah I see. I just scrapped my water feature idea for this particular tank so no worries.

Too bad, it's a sweet looking background. I wonder if the surface could be hardened sufficiently using a heat gun and/or a different type of clay? Just random thoughts, I have no experience working with clay.

If I had to guess....after "real life" calms down, Michael will be back. You can tell when the frog stuff is in your blood.
