Dissolve a couple of packs of viagra in the pond water and play some Marvin Gaye.
If that fails just rub them together and hope for the best.

Its not so much its not allowed Flanman its just not a good idea with spreading diseases and such, the best way is to let them colonise the pond naturally.
Saying that as a kid i always brought frogs and toads and newts home and now my dads garden is overun with them, so is mine but they were here when i bought the house so didnt have to do anything. And as for the ponds i used to collect frogs etc from theyre now housing estates with no frogs just kids on bikes, so in my case it worked. Mind you there wasnt all the nasty diseases about then or at least nobody knew if there was
