A bstract The analysis of type IIB flux vacua on warped Calabi-Yau orientifolds becomes considerably involved for a large number complex structure fields. We however show that, quadratic superpotential, one can devise simplifying schemes which effectively reduce the equations down to few. This be achieved by imposing vanishing certain quanta in regime, and then choosing remaining respect symmetries underlying prepotential. One implement an algorithm find families with fixed tadpole, independently illustrate this approach manifold 51 moduli, where several reduction implemented order explicitly solve vacuum that sector. Our findings display flux-tadpole-to-stabilized-moduli ratio is marginally above bound proposed Tadpole Conjecture, we discuss effects would take us below such bound.
