Please don't take offence at this post, but do you think the pool is adequate for the viridis to breed? I shall post a picture of my new setup (similar to ones i have used in the past which have had decent success. The pool is very shallow and heats up quickly. It is not ideal for rearing tadpoles but both the viridis and my Pool frogs have bred well in these ponds. Please give me chance to sort out a pic.

No offence taken Adam this forum is for advise. what do you think is wrong with the ponds? they are about 9" deep. The one for the marbled newts is the same is that ok?

My experience show newts to be quite unfussy when it comes to breeding, but viridis are a little trickier. They like a shallow pond of quite a large size that is in a sunny spot. My current pond maximum depth is 3" which is very shallow. Although i haven't used it yet, in previous years ponds such as this have been no problem whatsoever.

I have a few viridis.
Is it the depth of the pond that is important, the diameter or the temperature of the shallow water heating up in the sun during the day that is doing the trick for adamanuran?
I like your toad terraria killian.
