can i just order the eggs and food. after all it seem like u have to buy the small tank and then u have to buy the eggs separately so in truth this isn't a complete kit.but two separate items.

Yes. The website to order the eggs and food is www.toyops.com. The price for the "refill" is $10.95. (The price they charge with your "redemption card" is $9.95! So there is nothing free about the fish eggs that come with this tank.) I think you have a great idea here.

the kit come with the tank, food and eggs, they are not separate item to buy. I have 6 fishes hatched, the only problem for me is hatch brine shrimp so I can feed to my fish.

When you buy the kit, you get the tank & food, I think. However, since the eggs are perishable, they have to be sent separately & therefore, you have to pay separate shipping on them. A voucher comes with the tank that you have to send with shipping payment after you have your tank set up. So it is a 2-step process.

You have to order the eggs separately. And while the customer service doing this was AWESOME, you really don't get fish in a jif. (The brine shrimp did hatch right away though, so there was some excitement there!). Several months in, we still have no actual fish. And I doubt we ever will since the temp has to be 75, and we don't even have our thermostat ever set higher than 68, so looks like this will all be for nothing. Had we known, we'd have waited til summer to send in for the fish eggs.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if you can transfer everything to a glass tank? It's a small tank so you would probably need to buy some additional supplies to switch over to a larger glass tank.

Yes, it did come with a small bag of food but our frog died within two days. I called and they promised to replace the frog but in spite of multiple calls they never replaced the frog. They also only ship during certain weather so if you lived in an area that is cold or the frog must travel through a cold area or a very warm area, they will not ship the frog. That is the excuse they gave me for not replacing my frog. They said it was too hot to ship. So, yes, you get food but the problem is the company isn't good about replacing the frogs. Our died within 24 hours.

It looks like you would have to order four individual eggs, as we do not carry the assortments in one color.

Usually there are instructions included-the egg pods are shipped in May-and I have a Praying Mantis Pagoda"- a pop up screened type cage-OR you can put egg pod in small cardboard box with holes outside in a well protected spot-preferably in a thorny plant-to protect babies from the birds- If you hatch them in a pagoda type cage to see them hatch (they are sooo cute when they hatch) you can keep them for a day or two then they start eating each other-just take cage outside and open..and release! The Mantis' will climb up your hand,or arm lightning quick-so we use plant stems and tall grass blades to "load" up Mantis' and then just gently toss the plant/grass blade where you want them to go-they will disappear for several weeks so be patient-they tend to stay where you put them-keep looking..after several weeks you will start to see them at about 2-3"s long and then you can "monitor" them for the rest of the summer/early fall.They hang upside down under branches and leaves and as adults may fly away if feel threatened. I hope this helps-I have been ordering pods for 3-4 years now and I love seeing them all summer.

thanks i did end up buying this and it dose work i found out from searching on new egg, i also got it cheaper there because, new egg is based in California so i didn't have to pay taxes.

Some yes but mostly no. I would say if you were purchasing it solely for that reason it would not be worth your money a lot of the stuff is bigger than a plastic egg, even the jumbo ones.

If you want to, you could buy another one and take out all of the small pieces from both sets. Just keep the small pieces and give it to them when they are a little bit older. That is way they can have their own set of food

My friend who found this kit for me said it was everything I needed to get started at a wonderful price. The only thing I need to buy is the jars and lids and of course the food to can. So according to my friend yes, buy this kit and like myself, let's learn how to do this, I can't wait! Thanks, Cindy

I think I emailed the vendor directly after I made the purchase. I only did one animal, so I didn't have to ask for 2. Good Luck! My son loved his!!!

Yes. Their online instructions indicate you can use three (3) whole eggs instead of the one (1) whole egg & egg whites. http://www.bobsredmill.com/recipes.php?recipe=1087

We understood that the tadpole would come separately. We ordered and got a nice aquarium and put in a frog. We also ordered the small aquarium for a tadpole start. Months later the kids got a tadpole (I think at the local bait shop.) and used the small aquarium. I understood that the tadpoles had to be ordered separately. There is a lot of interesting reading on the internet or in books about frogs. Some of it is helpful. And there are some great stories! (:
