    Default 100 tadpoles in a 30 gallon tank?

    so i have lots of tadpoles which i hatched them from a bunch of egg , and there were tons of them approximately 100 tadpoles and are still babies like 2 weeks old , and they were like pigs , i placed them in a 30 gallon tank with a sponge filter and fed them boiled cabbage and fish flakes , Is the setup ok?
    And also how do i prevent cannibalism?
    They eat so fast so i just leave some boiled cabbage overnight and fish food on the morning like 10-15 crushed flakes......
    If i feed too much then i might kill the tadpoles of overeating D: , what should i do? and also is 100 tadpoles in a 30 gallon tank ok? i have also some plants for them to hide......
    So how do i prevent cannibalism without overeating ?
    the tadpole is a rana erythraea ( Asian Greenback Frog)

    Hi Jerome,
    Switch from cabbage to boiled (in dechlorinated water) romaine lettuce. For extra, freeze into an I e cube tray with the water you boiled it in. Then you can keep the lettuce ice cubes in the freezer for longer. The set-up should be okay, but you'll need to do weekly water changes to keep the nitrates down.
