Btw, you can just call them Ottos.
Freakgecko91 said:The exact species would help. They're one of two species: african dwarf frog or African clawed frog. Dwarfs will do fine in a community tank, clawed will get to be 4-5 inches long, not including legs, and will eat basically ANYTHING that moves

alia258 said:I'm planning on the African dwarf, with the webbed feet. After research it seems that I can accommodate all the needs of the froggies, but I have two remaining questions:
1.) will the frogs eat "tetra color tropical granules" which is a sinking food pellet, would it prefer frog/amphibian based food, or a variety of the two?
2.) will they do better in small or large groups, and if they mate will the fish eat the eggs?
alia258 said:For the frogs, could I make a shallow water area for them to rest in? I'm sure that they'd hang out in that area unless they want to go into the deep water. How shallow do you suppose I might make the area anyway? 5" maybe 6 or 7?
I'll research the rest
emerald76 said:To make a shallow area glue together flat rocks. To reach desired water depth of 6 inches use this formula-
Water depth-6= height of rocks

It might be a good idea to train the frogs to eat in the shallow area. This would make it the easiest way to feed them separately from the fish.
