African dwarf frog or African clawed frog??

Hey guys me and my fiance recently got two of these little guys from our lfs. We thought they were African dwarf frogs. After researching them I'm not so sure. What do you guys think??

I'm using the app, so I can't see too well. But, it looks more like a clawed, which is a whole different ball game. They get much larger, etc.

That's what I thought too but I don't know anything about them really

my grandad had a clawed frog and it got really big. he kept it well fed and it never bothered the fish and it was kept with neons. shouldnt be much bother if hes kept well fed although my grandad might have got lucky lol

Thats is definently a clawed frog. Hope hes alone because he will eat any tankmates small enough to fit in his mouth. And he gets big.

How big exactly??

 

[GodFan]

If memory serves its like 4 inches.

Wow that's crazy well thanks for the info guys

Yup, for sure an ACF. They will need their own tank not only because they will hunt fish, but if it's a tropical tank the temps are too warm for them which can make them ill.

I just recently got an adf and did a lot of research to make sure I got the dwarf and not clawed. If you look in the pets section it tells you the difference in the two. Yours looks like a clawed.
