Basic Frog First Aid

If it was in seattle try looking up Rana.aurora, or Pseudacris.regilla.Both are very common here on the west side.

From what I remember, the Pseudacris regilla fits the description better, but I don't remember it having the trademark stripe on it. I might have just overlooked it though.
Update on the sick tadpole, I think it died, It's not moving anymore and I can't see any inner-body movement, but luckily there is no sign of bloating in any of the other tadpoles.

I'm sorry it died. When the others morph into froglets you will be able to tell if they are P.regilla immediately. We have a care article http://www.frogforum.net/care-articl...orus-frog.html that may help you take care of them. Make sure they have a way to climb out of the water when they morph and have some flightless fruit flies ready to feed them, they are voracious when they are young.

Thanks for all your help, I hope the others survive

so sad, two more died. One of them bloated like the first one and the other just died, no bloating or anything, it looked completely normal except that it wasn't moving. I'm hoping that it was the water since I just changed it right now, but I couldn't change it before because I didn't have any water that had been sitting out for long enough. The other three tadpoles look okay, but they were moving a little slow.

I would get a dechlorinator like Stress Coat, it instantaneously makes tap water safe.
