Grow a frog are ACF = African Clawed frogs and they are a lot different. They get a lot larger to the point where they eat smaller fish. There is a great site for those frogs at

They can really point you in the right direction.
ADF tadpoles are too tiny and complicated for most people to raise so the kit comes with ACFs. Those are much larger to start with and eat packaged frog food. ADF tadpoles only hunt live microorganisms and live baby brine shrimp and that would not sell well as a kit.
Once the ACF tadpoles morph into small frogs they are the size of adult ADFs and look almost the same, but then they keep growing. You can check their feet. ADFs have webbed feet, ACFs do not have the webbed feet only claws.
Both are cool frogs though.
