The tadpole is a fish introduced in Animal Crossing: New Leaf (though biologically speaking, it is an amphibian). It appears as a tiny shadow that can be found in ponds all day from spring to mid summer. They sell for only 100 Bells, making them the cheapest fish in the game. It is unspecified what species of frog the tadpoles are, but they are assumed to be the same species as the frogs are.
