African Dwarf Frogs With My Betta!

[AngelOfDeath]

Hello, here is my Betta tank, it's 3 UK gallons and 3.6 US gallons, (I am waiting for my 16 gall to cycle, then I will put a heater and filter in there)

Can two african dwarf frogs live in the tank with the betta? as you can see i bought a cave, it will be kept at 75F as i have a nano heater, is this good for the frogs?

Also, do they croak or make annoying noises frequently? as it will be kept a few metres from my bed and dont want it to keep me awake etc

Are you planning on putting the frogs in the 3G or the 16G? The 3G you could get away with providing you are strict with water changes.

If you get a male frog depending on if he is happy and willing to breed then yes he will make alot of noise. Some males are louder then others but my most prolific male can be heard over the noise of my TV and he sings nearly every night. Here is a video of him singing, you will have to turn the volume up on your speakers;

If you'd like info about them I've written a short article on them, here is the pinned thread;

the 3g, apologies if it was unclear, I dont want it to annoy the hell out of me though, do you think it's better to go for cherry shrimp?

It depends on the betta, the shrimp should be ok but you may find the betta decides they look rather tasty(esp. if you end up with shrimp offspring) and / or doesn't want to share his tank so will have a go at them.
