Dear Rashida, In the first place what is the size of this foam? It could be the foam created by the green tree frog. During the monsoon, they mate in a place that is just over a little stream or above a pond. It could be on top of a tree branch or on the walls of a tank. As they mate, the female lets the eggs out and the male releases the sperm all the time whipping up a foam. The eggs are held in this foam till it hatches and then the tadpoles drop into the stream and start swimming. They remain till the life cycle is complete and then get out of the stream and start life all over again. The question is how big is the foam. If it is anything up to around 4 to 5 inches, this may be the cause. Regards Yazdy
