Dwarf Frog laid eggs and now I don't know how to care for the tadpoles?

My Dwarf frog laid eggs. I collected them in a cup with water, but now I don't know how to care for the tadpoles. They are tiny, and I'm positive they are alive. I don't know how to feed them, since they are basically tiny specs, does anyone know what I should do?
I have some frog pellets and I crushed them up, do you think they will be small enough?
Tropical Fish Flakes is ok or cut up some tubaflix/blood worms up and through it in the tank.

go to a pet store for food,ask a worker there what to feed them
clean there water bowl about every week or when it gets the tiniest bit foggy

bowl of water w/ plants in it? i believe the eat like plant matter/algea..im sure you can feed them the baby fish food. i would have said to leave in w/ the frog, but im sure you have a filtration system-and you dont want them sucked up into it.
just a bucket of water -dechlorinated of course- should be fine. i raised tadpoles and just turned off my filtration and had an air stone for water movement.

my advice is to take them to a near by petco or petsmart : they carry frogs tadpoles fish ( sea animals) try that!

i really dont know wht to do but the bst bet would be to put plants in there and let them eat the algea and i would put their mother in with them….

The tadpoles are predatory from birth – fish food won't cut it.
Get some baby brine shrimp and check out this site:
