my lady comes back from the lfs today and says " look honey pretty frogs" , she bought 2 tutti frutti frogs, we have a 75 gallon with 2 emporer 400 hob filters.

after much reading on AA , seems they are african clawed frogs, many posts on them say they should be species only, was wondering since its a big tank , will they be ok with other fish?
7 tiger barbs
2 black mollies
3 fruity tetras (more wifey fish)
1 rainbow shark
4 giant danios
2 albino coreys
1 pictus catfish

all fish are larger than the frogs right now, can they survive swimming 18 inches to reach air?
 
Honestly, I don't think your ACF has a good chance of surviving very long in that size of tank. They really need to be in a 20 gallon tank maximum to be able to get up to the top of the water and they also need to be with fish that won't eat them/they won't eat, so I wouldn't really trust them with your Rainbow Shark or Mollies and then some others too. Sorry. :(

ill try and take them back tomorrow, and ban her from the lfs (y)
 
That's Good - it's probably the best decision. Sorry you didn't get to have them for long. :(

EDIT: Oh and thanks for thanking my post - it's the first thanks i've ever gotten I think LOL.
