Hello every one! i am planning to get an african dwarf frog. i heard they need at least one gallon of water each so if I have a 3.5 gallon tank could I comfortably hold a single frog in it? I dont want the frog to be in too small of a cage so if it is please let me know :)
 
One frog in 3.5 gallons is quite good, and I would say the actual rule for ADFs is one frog per three gallons... No more than that. :)
 
I have three of these guys in quite a big tank. They are nice and fat but often in poor condition when they are flown into the UK. Hope yours are in better condition. Interestingly the males get quite aggressive towards each other when courting, have not seen it to the same extent in any other frog.
 
thanks a lot guys! :) I was really hoping a 3.5 would be good because if it wasn't i really dont know what else i'd do with it haha

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
