Frogs and tadpoles got really scarce in my first pond once the LMB were big enough to eat them (IIRC, after about one growing season after being stocked at 3"-4").

I have lots of frogs and thousands of bullfrog tadpoles in my second pond now with 10"-12" SMB. It will be interesting to see if/when the SMB will thin them out.
