Best Answer

Yes, they will eat each other, especially if you don't feed them regularly. When they are tadpoles, no need to worry. But when they get their legs, they become complete carnivores and will nutty and eat each other, that is, if you don't feed them. Even if you put meat in there, there is a small chance that the tadpoles won't eat each other. If you REALLY want both tadpoles to live, you should probably separate them.

They eat mostly algae, but also small creatures. In the case of the Wellington toad, other tadpoles. If not enough algae, then they will eat each other. I hear that you could feed the tadpoles food, but I don't know if that is a good idea. Just go to a local pet store and buy an algae plant.
