yeah i tried to type it in on google but i couldn't get anything but try boiling water and putting it in there to soften it up and help it sink try blood worms or moss if you have a pond near buy if you use moss you may won't to wash it well or let it dry out in the sun it useually has tons of hitch hikers water beatles are the main worry the will try to eat you tadpoles and any fish roughly the same size or a little bigger
 
It is a bullfrog tadpole, no other native meets the size and brownis, speckled description, they are herbivorous and detritus eaters as well. They will scrape green algae and eat most leafy veggies if the veggies has been softened by simmering, they should also take goldfish flakes that have started to breakdown, don't worry to much if you don't see it eat for a few days. They are most active in the mid 70's F. 1-2 years is not unusual before the develope further though keeping it in that temp. range minimizes that time. As adults they eat any thing that moves if they can fit it in thier mouths, this includes fish and other frogs or tadpoles.
