Well, I hear they LOVE lettuce. Boil the lettuce for 10 to 15 minutes and then drain it. Chop it up a little, and then you can lay it on a tray to freeze it. For average home ponds, use an icecube tray- 1 cube every couple of days should be enough. For smaller tanks, just lay some flat on a tray and freeze it, and keep it in a baggie in the freezer. Give the tadpoles a pinch every few days.
Remember: too much food will get the water all dirty, and too little will make the tadpoles get nutty and go after each other. If your water gets dirty really fast, slow down on the feeding...and be sure to replace the dirty water with some fresh spare water.
n the wild tadpoles will often eat algae and micro plants. When they are in captivity they may feed on a wide variety of food for example: baby food, egg yolk, lettuce, algae and special dietary food supplements. Yet of course the choices vary for different types of tadpoles and owners.
Some types of tadpoles eat unfertilized eggs from the mother, while others are cannibalistic and eat their brother and sister tadpoles.
In the wild, tadpoles eat algae and water plants. They like to sit on the banks or rocks and suck the algae off of them. In captivity, tadpoles eat plants there owners give them. They usually like lettuce, carrots, and fruits. (No citrus foods.) You can even buy special Tadpole Food at pet stores.
Tadpoles are herbivorous and will eat lettuce or spinach when they are young. If you freeze it first, it will thaw and make it easier for the tadpole to eat. If the tadpole is in a pond they will rasp away at algae on the wall or pond weed. When they get their legs, they become carnivorous and will eat each other if they do not get meat. You can hang a piece of raw meat (not greasy!) on a string, and when it starts to rot, pull it out. When they are froglets (tadpoles with front and back legs but still have tails) they can eat tiny fruit flies or, if big enough, very small crickets.
