Are these tadpoles of frogs you keep yourself or wild ones? I have no experience of keeping amphibians so I wont give advice there, but if they are wild frogs, my garden is currently full of them. they like to be kept moist but adult frogs and toads very rarely return to the pond, in fact usually only to breed, so they should be ok out of water. as soon as the tail dissapears they should be ok to release into your backyard. in the meantime you could put something into the goldfish bowl like a log or rock that sticks out of the water so they have somewhere to sit as once they get to that stage they start to breathe air rather than use gills, and could drown if they cant get out of the water.
sorry if none of that makes any sense, but i hope it helps!!
