African Dwarf Frogs

[ChameleoNewb]

Hey I'm new to the forums any responses are appreciated!

I want to get 2 little African dwarf frogs and was wondering a few things:

Are they messy?
What do they eat?
How big does there aquarium need to be?
Do they need live fish to live with them?
How much would everything cost?

Thanks!

I have 3 of them. i started out with a five gallon and just ended up putting them in my 55 gallon tank. they like to eat tublifex worms, brine shrimp.

Dwarf frogs are very easy and the upkeep is almost nothing. A 5 gallon tank is good. As long as they have some places to hide and the water temp is kept in the high 70's they are very easy and create no mess at all. You can feed them blood worms, brine shrimp or dwarf frog pellets. They can live with or without fish as long as the fish are non-aggressive. The whole setup, including the frogs, im guessing should cost anywhere between $50-80 depending on the quality and size of your setup.
