african dwarf frogs

Is there a certain tank height that they need to breath, what do they eat? Thank you in advance!

The height needs to be less than 15 inches. Why? Because these frogs swim up for air. Anything higher then that may be to difficult for them to swim up to. I feed mine reptomin sinking pellets. Don't feed them just fish flakes. Although they can survive off this, it is not healthy. Also, if you plan to put fish in the tank make sure there are spots the frogs can go under to hide. Some tend to be scardy cats

Also I hand feed mine but if its in a tank by itself u will not have to do this

 

[Fishman87]

Okay I'll probably put one in my 5 gallon tank

 

[Fishman87]

Are they good roommates to other fish?

In a 5 u could have 3 or 4 and if u want fish the best are neon tetras my frogs love them and they don try to eat cause the neons are to big for the frogs mouth

Mine was with female bettas high fin platys sword tails and tetras but I'd stick with bettas or tetras

 

[Fishman87]

Okay, any special care aside from hand-feeding them?

Be careful with betta I had two adf in a 10g with a betta that had a long tail and the frogs tried to eat him whenever his tail got to close. Actually had to pull him out of ones mouth once
