  • Title: A minimum-volume, flow-through system for rearing frog tadpoles: aquarium.
    Author: Schmidt RS, Hudson WR.
    Journal: Lab Anim Sci; 1979 Aug; 29(4):525-7. PubMed ID: 316042.
    Abstract:
    A flow-through system requiring a low flow rate (4-10 ml/minute/aquarium) was developed for rearing tadpoles. This permitted tadpoles to be raised in tap water that had been dechlorinated and acidified. The aquarium consisted of a 7-liter plastic outer shell. A screen-bottomed basket, inserted into the shell, facilitated handling of the tadpoles. A bottom-scraper and flushing system permitted periodic removal of solid wastes.
