1 day old tadpoles well not eat..?

my 1 day old tadpoles well not eat fish flacks or icebearg lettuce...why not and what can i do to help them eat?
Answers:
They don't eat for the first few days.
First of all, tadpoles are not reptiles. And second of all, this is a good site to go to, and they have a section on tadpoles: http://www.repticzone.com
Placing some fallen leaves from a nearby creek on the bottom will give the tadpoles a place to hide. If the leaves have some algae growing on them, the. tadpoles will eat the algae. Could it be eating algae from its housing and you just do not see it?
Tadpoles will eat bottom feeder fish food tablets
There should always be some food in the container but don't put in more than what the tadpoles will eat in a day or two
The new frog will not start to eat until its tail has been completely absorbed. Once the tail is gone.
Hope this helps!!
