billythefish Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I found this growing in my first water tank - before the filter system - it was about two inches above the waterline. When wet it resembles a bag of about 4 inches each way, it is as sticky as a hot marshmallow and will cling to anything. The photos are after I got it out of the water tank, and it immediatley shrunk. I thought it might be something made from frog spit or similar. There were no signs of eggs or anything else inside - just like a ball of snot! The photos are on a leaf as it was the only way to cqarry it without it disintegrating. Frog, Spider or what?

billythefish Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Alien invasion matey??? Wife been acting a little odd lately??? Either that or you have become God and created a new life form....... The wife has been acting oddly since the day we met! But that has to be expected. but besides her mental shortcomings -, this thing is pretty disgusting - I was bricking it taking it out of the water tanks in case it suddenley split and I was attacked by a million baby cobras or Jakep - there sems like there is nothing inside and it is just a sticky ball of goo! I think it must be from a frog (Any French people in my neck of the woods?) or a frothing Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBWG Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Yep, the spawn of some kind of frog, Had a big deposit of it on the side of a large pot of water in the garden, gradually shrunk and then hey presto lost of tadpoles swimming in the pot!
