fish food that come in flakes is the easiest to feed tadpoles. crush the flakes up between your fingers as you are dropping the flakes in if the tadpoles are really small. You can also look into flaked turtle food too.

well to start off get a filtered 5 gallon tank to prevent disease. then get the apropriate acsessaries for the little guys. then this is were the food comes in. go to a pet store like petsmat and buy a food for your tadpoles called tadpole and salamander bites. i had tadpoles and it worked out greatly. i also sugest a water heater(for reptiles) and also do frequent water changes. if you dont have a filter get a reptile water filter becouse when they get older and even when there babies they can get an infectious disease called red leg usualy all who are infected(that is frogs) wind up dying if not caught and treated. when the tadpoles get older and become frogs seperate them becouse they will eat each other becouse they are , when they get older, are carnivouris and canablistic. i would if i were you get a 20 gallon tank for them just in case so they can thrive better. oh yeah and the food i recomended will make them grow faster. fish food isnt a really good diet. they wont get the full amount of nutrients they need. good luck and god bless the animals in the world!

Bull frogs are trouble. They need a great deal of space and they will eat anything they can catch both as tadpoles and adults.

Try feeding them feeder guppies or other small live foods, supplement with frozen brine shrimp, worms, etc.

Bullfrogs are carnivorous and will consume almost anything that fits into their mouth which they can overpower, including insects, small mammals, fish, snakes, and even other frogs.
Tadpoles eat small fish, fish eggs, insects, algae. When we were kids we fed them bread and they survived...so how about gold fish food?
