Can Aquatic Frogs Be Kept With Goldfish?

I visited an Aquatic shop this morning and saw aquatic frogs in with goldfish, i thought the frogs were tropical fish? am i wrong?

Depends on the type of frog I guess. But most are tropical.

Having said that, frogs are air breathers. And the main consideration in temp is because oxygen is at lower levels in hotter water, which wouldn't make much difference to a frog.

It would still be best to keep things at the temp they prefer though.

It would depend on the size of frog, but I'll say no. First of all goldies are notorious for eating just abou tanything tha tthey can catch and fit in their mouth. Secondly, goldfish are huge waste producers wheras frogs are very sensitive to water quality.
