African Clawed Frog

[Meghanbridget33]

My daughter really wants a frog for the tank, I am concerned that this guy is going to eat my fish or whatever. I dont know much about them.

I have small rams, five cory cats. That like the bottom. I also have four large angels, three gouramis, four gold barbs, cherry barb, zebra danios, three keyhole cichlids, and three platies. This is a 75 gal tank. With a fixed hood.

He will devour them. My son kept one for fourteen years, once I tried to put in a goldfish that was far to large to eat. He mauled it within minutes. Very cool critter but not with finned tank mates. We kept him in a filtered 40 and then my sump and he did great. We fed him floating carnivore foods. Get it, she will love it. Just put it in a 10 or 20 with a filter. His got as big as my hand.

[ehh]

I've seen those frogs eat anything they can fit in their mouths.

Good plan Meghanbridget33

I tried 14 neons with my frog. 13 not to be found over 1 night. He also ate around 35/40 tiger barbs over 2 months. But he did used to sit in my hand to feed

Also when he was young you would be lucky to see him once a week

Yes these need to be kept in a species only tank with other frogs. As was said they will eat carnivore sticks. A 20 long should do for one

African dwarf clawed would be a better option.
