Bull frog tadpole care/questions

[Jacobsherps]

I got these little guys from a neighbors pond. They let me have them. One of them has little leg sprouts and the other has back legs about a centimeter long. I took them inside and they are in cleaner water with a small bulb for a few added degrees

I see, still looks like bullfrog tads to me but they could also be northern green frogs

We get quite a few of those around here. I just gave them the boiled spinach. How often do i need to give them that

[Jacobsherps]

Also the water was murkey because we were aclimating them and the pond had a muddy bottom

[Frogman1031]

I would give them a bit every day, they’re little eating machines. Give them enough that they’ll eat but no too much so that the water gets too dirty, it’ll take a little trial and error. This is why the filter is really helpful because tadpoles are messy, so without a filter you’ll find yourself doing water changes annoyingly often

What filter type do you recomend. I dont want them to het sucked up

[Frogman1031]

I’m not really experienced with aquatics so I’m not sure exactly which one I’d recommend, but a hang on back filter rated for your tank size should be fine. Bullfrog tads aren’t as weak as tads of some other species
