This brings back memories of catching tadpoles when I was a child. We pit them in an aquarium but eventually they turned into frogs, got out and started jumping all over the house. We also had a crayfish in the aquarium that got loose. I don't think that I will ever forget when it crawled out from under the couch as my mother was sitting on it talking on the phone... That was the end of our aquarium adventures... 😅🤣
Sounds similar to my childhood, but we would put tadpoles, catfish, crawdads, bluegill, minnows, creek chubs and every other native aquatic creature we could catch in a stock tank outside. Our favorite was bull frog tadpoles! We even managed to grow some liliepads that they could crawl up onto. They always eventually hopped out and went on their way. My dad didn’t mind this setup because he always had a ready supply of fishing bait, haha.
