I'm new to this forum, and I joined because I have a bit of an interesting situation.
I work at a petstore in BC, Canada, who accidentally received three tadpoles with a shipment of 300 feeder goldfish. For those of you that don't know, goldfish are cold-water fish.
Frogs occasionally lay eggs in with the goldfish, and to the chagrin of many, the tadpoles look identical to the small fish until you see them up close.
These are (supposedly) wild frogs, and this is the first time that the tadpoles have survived, but our store cannot legally sell them, the conditions at the store are far from ideal for frogs, so I took the only one that had metamorphosed into a froglett to ensure that it had better care. I want to make sure that the frog is either released into a safe habitat in future when he is large enough, or find a public service that can take care of him properly, but I can't do that until I have identified the frog species.
These are the only pictures I can get at the moment. He is very good at hiding. The frog itself is about the size of a quarter.

Are there any tips you could give me as well?
All I have for feeding at the moment is frozen bloodworm, even small crickets look too big for this little guys mouth. I have hermit crabs, so I do have freeze dried shrimp? I doubt he would eat it.
