Ian,

I think you have an excellent suggestion embedding in your question...
Chilled Rum!

I've never tried it on tadpoles, but it has fixed me quite well on occasion.

    Student going to Trinidad this summer where she will study frogs. Most
of us would simply chill and drink rum but this is a keen young student. Any
recommendations for a fixative for tadpoles just as they are about too
emerge from the egg. No jelly, just a tadpole inside the egg.
