On the other hand, if the goldfish were sick, any meds used to treat the goldfish could harm the frogs. If it were my frogs I'd only keep them with the "food" I was offering them. I'd keep feeders isolated until I were confidant they were healthy. When buying feeders, I like to see them in their tank before purchase. I don't want a dozen goldfish from a death tank. Dan

Basically, most of what feeders may bring into a tank may be transmitted to Xenopus frogs.
