Pacman Tadpoles?

[Rhapsody]

I have seen a few photos and videos online of people with Pacman tadpoles. Is it possible to get them as tadpoles from pet stores, or is the only way to obtain one as a tadpole to breed them yourself? I am curious, because I have been planning on getting a pacman frog and was looking into getting a tadpole if I could.

I've never seen them offered for sale, but I suppose if you found somebody who breeds them, they could set you up with some. I did a quick google search and turned up nothing. You might want to watch someplace like FaunaClassifieds for somebody offering them.

Raising one from a tad would be fun and interesting. it's my understanding that they don't remain in the tadpole stage for long, though.

Apparently the tadpoles are carnivorous...I've looked into breeding them before.

I watched one being fed on youtube once. I couldn't find that vid, but I did find one just floating around. Here is the vid.

Yes, the only thing I've seen the tadpoles eat were redworms, but once again, that was from watching ayoutube video that I can't seem to find now. I'll look again and see if I can find it this time.

EDIT: Found it!
