My Ranitomeya sirensis frogs are busy caring for their tadpoles. The tadpoles have been placed in medium-sized bromeliads (Neoregelia 'Super Cute' hybrid). When the parents arrive at the bromeliad, the tadpole start moving and creating ripples in the water to get their attention. The female then lays an unfertilized egg before moving on. In the photo, you can see the tadpole in the water, already showing yellow stripes on its body.
