African Clawed frogs, cannibals?

Just to be safe I would grow out the new guy first. Years ago when I didn't know any better I had small frogs and adult frogs in together. The small frogs disappeared. If it fits in a ACF's mouth, it will be eaten. Again this was years ago and I didn't know any better.

ditto to Tony

Adults will eat young frogs. If it can fit in their mouth, it is dinner.

I have a few adult females, including 2 adult albino females I am selling if you are looking for adults. I have them posted in the for sale section

Wow, guys thanks for all the help.

It would be cool to buy one of your albinos but I am all the way down in MD :/

My GF has a smaller tank 10-20 gal? I may set that one up to put a young albino in until its big enough to hold its own against my adult ACF. Also was thinking about putting a bristlenose pleco in the tank, but that would require me to use the heater and tank filter, which could irritate the ACF. Although he has bunked with fish before (even a small pike cichlid, they actually got along). But my fish all died in a suspected ammonia spike :/, im thinking from a goldfish my bro had in my tank.

Just wanted to let you know, shipping to MD is no problem at all. I ship Mondays, arrival by Wednesday/Thursday for $23.50.

As for a BN pleco...their minimum tank requirement is about 25 gallons for one pleco.

Also, filters do not bother ACF and are extremely beneficial to their health by giving them a healthier living environment. Otherwise all the waste between waterchanges produces ammonia which irritates and burns the ACF skin. A cycled filter turns ammonia into nitrite (also bad) and nitrite into nitrate (not bad!!!) leaving your frog in a safer environment.

Well, the gf really really wants me to just get a baby and keep it in the other tank lol. My current frog is in a 29 gal. So I think im gonna re-do the interior of the tank and put a BN Pleco in with him. Maybe also some wisteria. Ill also try to put him in a small container to get some pics.

I have an aquaclear filter. just need to clean it up and change the sponge part. Hope he stays off the top of it.
