Ok I have a couple of questions. First what is your opinion on feeding Goldfish? I tried to feed my female a goldfish and I can't get her to eat? I tried dangling it in front of her and also rubbing her snout a little with it. Rubbing their snout has worked for me for getting pacmans to eat goldfish. Any other ideas? I doubt she'd eat it if I just put it in their water bowl am I right?
Also what else do you guys feed your tomatoes? I've heard of some people using pinkies. Currently I just feed them crickets, waxworms and superworms and of course I tried the Goldfish.

Ok my next question if I'm thinking about trying to get them to breed. For their dry season do I really have to prolong it for five or six months? Will just a couple months of "dry season" suffice?

Thanks for the help ~wayne

Tomato Frogs aren't aggressive like horned frogs, you'll have to either let the goldfish flop around in front of it or in the water dish.
I don't think that it will need a full 5-6 months for the fry period, you should be able to get them to breed with a 2-3 month dry season.
