Does anyone know

My tadpoles are currently really small. They eat of the glass of my aquarium. I was wondering if anyone here knows how long it will be until they swim full time? I think they are either bull frog or green frog tadpoles.

Tadpoles are not fish, they don't swim all the time. What you see them doing now is what they will do the majority of their time.

ok...i just wanted to know if it was normal.

they really don't swim all that much, at least the ones i have had (wood frog, green and bullfrog, leopard frog.) I would think that if they were constantly moving, something was stressing them (turning on a sudden bright aquarium light after theyve been in darkness does this, and should be avoided.) mostly they sit on the pond bottom.
