Help identifying tadpole

[Larry Wardog]

It has a line going down it's back and appears to have black face markings appearing.

I hope it's a Leopard Frog or Wood Frog so I can keep it. Anything else I can't keep for the 75 Gallon.

Hmm, that does look like the coloration of a Wood frog, I'm just not sure if they get that coloration as a tadpole, especially when they'll morph soon. (I think they develop basic colors, and the patterns develop when they loose their tails or something along those lines) I'll look into it some more. If you could do it without stressing the animal, could you get a photo of the mouthparts and how they look?

EDIT: Yeah, pretty sure this isn't a Wood frog, as they shouldn't have as many flecks on the tail fin as this animal has. I'm thinking either Leopard frog or Green/Bronze frog. If you haven't found this already, this is a help as well: http://infinitespider.com/introducti...dpoles-and-id/
