We also have lots of frogs in our garden & spring traffic is very busy in our pond. We had to make a smaller pond for the frog spawn as our fish were eating all the tadpoles. Sadly however, this year I have found two dead frogs in my garden, with no visable injuries from cats etc I am concerned it could be something worse, like a disease. I hope not, as I have been looking after the tadpoles over the past few years to build up an army of frogs to eat the army of slugs we have in our garden.

We have only a few 'planted' aquatic plants in there and need some oxygenating plants but they are expensive in the garden centre to get more than a couple of sprigs. Has anyone any suggestions for a quick way of providing any good oxygenating plant which is quick to spread but not expensive? Also how can we best protect the spawn and tadpoles from predators?
