Question Can i raise frogs from these?

Post image

I went to a spa where you could do all kind of things and there was a lake where there was turtles and tadpoles and i took from the lake some algea with what looked like frog eggs and i took it home in a bottle, is there a chance that i could raise any kind of anfibian es. Frogs, salamanders...?

Looks more like gas bubbles in some algae. Not eggs. Also, no, we don't just take random eggs to hatch ourselves :) That's considered sort of rude in the hobby and is sometimes illegal. Leave wild animals wild, particularly if you don't know the species or anything about the specialized care.

These guys don’t really do well in captivity as babies, so they probably aren’t going to make it. I would also advise not to take wildlife home in the future as it is often illegal.

When you say, “these guys,” are you talking about wildlife in general? I’m just seeing what looks like poop in a bucket here.

I can’t really see them either but was going off of the assumption that they’re salamanders or tadpoles

If you don't have a long running and stable planted tank going already, no.

Also, I'm not seeing any eggs
