Dwarf Frogs Question

[JesseMessykinn]

Well I have a question about these Frogs, Since my Wife had to have them.

Well The guy at Petco told me that if I add them to May Main tank My Barbs would rip them apart. I was Just Wondering if Anyone Has Kept these Dwarf Frogs With Tiger barbs before, and How did it Turn out?

I have never had them in a larger set up, but it is easier to have them on their own. They are not the best at getting to the food, the fish drastically out-race them. They also need to be in a tank that is not too high. I'm not sure of an exact length, but around a foot is the highest it needs to be. These guys will normally stay at the bottom and must swim to the top to gather air.

Smaller frogs are a common meal to many fish and I would imagine barbs would also nip at them. I'm sure someone with direct experiance can help you or you could attempt a trial and see what happens. Just have a net waiting and do this a few hours after a big feeding.

I agree that a species only tank would be best for these guys.

I have to presume that tiger barbs would rip them to shreds, being the nasty little buggers that they are.
