Tadpole/Froglet ID please! Thank you ^_^

[evyn]

Hi everyone! Someone directed me to this forum for an ID so I can make sure I care for these little guys properly. They came in by accident with the feeder goldfish shipment at the pet shop I work at so I decided to save them from nibbling on dead goldfishes and give them a safe place to become froggies. I am in Missouri, USA.

This is him now, they really grow fast! I've got him out of my aquarium now and into a 10 gallon with a good rock he can walk on if he wants to.

Here is the second tadpole I saved yesterday, looks to be the same species.

Much appreciated to anyone who can help me with an ID!

Evyn they look like they might be Leopard Frogs. How long are they? Where did the shipment of goldfish originate from?

I looked up some pictures of leopard frogs, I agree that it's very possible. The one that is still a tadpole is about 2 1/2 inches from nose to tail, and the one that is almost a frog is about one and a half sense his tail is shrinking. I have no idea where my boss get's his feeder goldfish, he wasn't there the last time I worked, so I will try to ask him next time I see him. Im starting to see spots so I think they are! Took this pic for size comparison but it's brought out spots.
