To date staff are looking after two froglets, 15 large tadpoles and 20 smaller ones.

Hannah Butt, from the aquarium, said: ‘Despite the fact the female is almost twice the size of the male it certainly doesn’t seem to be putting either of them off. I think we can safely say they have settled in extremely well.’
