Okay I saw *another* post involving a bichir eating a frog. I remember one thread awhile back where someone mentioned frogs as a main part of their fishes diet. Spill the beans.

Do you buy bullfrogs in bulk? Do you go out and catch them? CAN you buy bullfrogs? Or are you buying tadpoles then taking the time to grow them out?

As a spin off on that.... would it be worth the time/money to buy a gripload of tadpoles, feeding them and letting them grow up then using them as food?

Maybe I'm sick in the brain, but the idea of watching my endlis chase around a bullfrog, then lunging and snapping it up excites me. A lot. About as much as the idea of owning a pure Japanese Endli. So yes... I must know. Spill the beans, please.
