    african clawed frogs cannot drown in a 20 gallon tank, while it would be stressful for the frogs to continually have to swim a long distance to surface and breathe, with a 20 gallon tank, that wont be a problem.

    my biggest concern in a 20 gallon would be the frog escaping the tank, make sure you have a lid or lower the water enough to where escape is impossible (so about 4 or 5 inches from full)
