These frogs are meat eaters. The people I got my first frogs from kept 2 of them in a 10 gallon tank and fed them anything that was around including Reptomin sticks. Just like humans they will eat anything if they are hungry enough. They are massive garbage hogs and live on all kinds of nasty in the wild. That being said, these frogs can eat a pretty varied diet.

I keep worm compost bin. I have my own worms there that I can feed to my frogs. However you will need to "poop" or de poop the worms or the dirt sullies the tank. Gross I know but it can make a difference and add nitrates and such you don't want in your tank. The fun thing is you can train them to come up and take it right from your hands. My first graders love that!

I never do freeze dried unless it has soaked for awhile. Same goes for the dried food pellets. I do use frozen blood worms most often. I found beef heart and brine shrimp make a mess of the tank and filters. And I HATE that.

I don't do feeder fish right from the stores because I never know what bugs they have. I did quarantine a bunch of guppies and let those breed one year but it's a hassle. So back to frozen blood worms I went.

Personally I think the whole thing behind the HBH frog and tadpole stuff is nutty. Just my opinion. When the tads are little it might make some sense to crush them and use them but over all, these critters do just fine on what they like best. Meat.
