Well at my LFS they are selling tadpoles looks to be bullfrogs. I was wondering when I start my 55 completely up get my plants and stuff could I keep one or two in there?

Are you sure they're actually bullfrog tadpoles? In all reality, it's not the easiest thing to identify. Even so, that species can take anywhere from a few months to a few years to fully develop...
Set up a ten gallon temporarily for one if you really decide on buying one- for all you know it could turn out to be a common leopard frog.

like dylan said, you cant be sure what kind of tadpole it is.

also, if it IS a bullfrog, you have to ask yourself, will you have enough room and a big enough tank for a bullfrog?

Well I went back to LFS they said they are positive they are bullfrogs. But as soon as it becomes a frog that is were I am stuck at. I know I can't really release it because it would die and I don't they can live under water theiir whole lives so most likel I just won't get one. to be safe.
