Thanks. I am most likely setting up a tank for the cats today as they are really cool.
Yes corydora are very awesome fish, I keep a small school of 6 (there were 7 but he became sick, had no barbels when I purchased him.. they started to grow back but then I found him stuck to the filter intake unable swim and then died shortly after being placed in a hospital tank). I love them but I find they are very skittish fish (at least mine are). Every time I go near the tank they *POOF* disappear into the plants and driftwood!

My best advice for you with these frogs is to keep one, SINGLE frog (no fish, no snails, nothing.. one frog, period) in your largest tank and drop the water levels to 4 inches below the top of the tank.

When I got into ACF I kept a single frog for roughly 3 months until I got the hang of caring for them. I started with zero knowledge about aquatic frogs as well. My frog was kept in an uncycled tank (luckily cycled by using a friends 'established' Whisper 10i to speed it up), I had no idea how to feed them (was given fish flakes by the LFS), and kept them with fish (Zebra Danios which developed Ich!), an apple snail which was harassed by the frogs to death, and a heater (wasn't necessary, possibly kept too warm..), I even had one of my frogs jump out of the tank and fall 4 feet on to hardwood floor (he luckily survived unscathed, but again, was lucky) ect. Despite all that, my first frog (the albino one) is still alive and he's (she?) as fat and happy as a clam to this day.

Once you get into the groove of keeping these frogs and your frog is healthy and thriving you can consider adding an additional frog. That's how I would do it, go slow and learn the ropes with one frog to start it's easier to ease into it.
