Hi LeapFrog_85LeapFrog_85 said:I have an albino clawed frog and an African dwarf frog ....... so far they are fine but is there anything to worry about?
Hi Inchworm, what about heat for these little guys?? Do they need a heater in the two gallon tank? What about a filter too?Inchworm said:The good news here is that it will be easy enough to find a new home for the little fellow since 2 of them can live quite comfortably in just a gallon or two of water.
Hi Inchworm, have you ever kept the ADF's in a container without heat? The reason I ask is because on another forum they are adamant that the frogs need heat and also they need a minimum of 2.5 gallons per ADF. For the ACF's they say you need at least 10 gallons per frog.Inchworm said:Hi Pugwinkle
If you have the little ADFs they don't need a heater. You don't actually need a filter, either, if you take them out and give the tank a good cleaning every few weeks. Just change a little water in between cleanings.
African Dwarf Frogs are so small and they eat so little that their tanks remain fairly clean.
Now, the Clawed Frogs are a different story entirely.
Thanks again Inchworm!!! Looks like I will be able to get my froggies then!! I just have to find something suitable to put them in until I move.Inchworm said:I keep my 2 ADFs in a one gallon jar and clean it completely every couple of weeks. They've been living there without heat or filtration for about 2 years. The only problem I've had was when the cat knocked the lid ajar and one must have jumped out.
Yes, as far as I know you will have a problem. I don't think crabs and frogs go together as tank mates.mrcrabbs said:I am probably going to get a ADF. I have a crab. Will there be a problem?
I have a heater with my three little guys because my father keeps the house at a steady 55 degrees all year around. So that's a little chilly for the fella's.Pugwinkle said:Thanks again Inchworm!!!

I do have a 2.5 gallon hex tank but I don't think Barney Betta wants to share that so I'll look for something else
