noticed that the size variation perpetuates itself to the extremes; the big toad eat all the fruit fly and the small toads only eat if they are segregated. I noticed the small black tadpoles are staying small and black in the tank with the big spea grape-like white sharks. when I put the little raisins in their own tank, they appear to be growing normally again. It might be straight competition for resources, but I see social control.

the little toads are more active for sure. observing the flies more. definitely more strikes.
a new hierarchy sets up instantly the big guys are removed. the new biggest frog of any species moves into the center of the tank on the spagum moss.
