What frogs/toads can I keep with fish?

[Scottyhorse]

I am thinking I am going to completely redo my 25 gallon tank. Lately I've had this thing for frogs, but I think my parents would kill me right now if I set anymore tanks up SO.... I thought I would add a frog into the tank lol I'm open to anything, but I don't want african dwarf frogs or african clawed frogs. Planning on using driftwood and making a little gravel/sand thingymajig for them to get out of water.

What fish.,
Some cichlids are very aggressive.

And some frogs will eat fish.

Especially american bullfrogs.
They will eat just about anything that they can fit in their mouths.
See
A story of a tuff american bullfrog from my local vet.

First of all hi, I am also new here and also a big fish aquarium enthusiast! What sort of tanks do you currently have set up? I have fresh water, salt water and gold fish...a combined total of over 1100L! Anyway, I cant answer your question from experience as I am still in the lurking/researching phase but I have seen pictures of tree frogs (not sure of the specific variety, sorry) kept with things like tetras, but only about 5 (minimum schooling size). Frog species in relationship to required/safe water depth in relationship to potential for fish will need to be considered I guess. And of course...unfortunately, just because there is a picture floating around on the internet doesn't necessarily mean its a successful set up

Good luck!

Mixing frogs and fish usually ends badly and that does not count your "death by parents" . Taking out the DACF literally rules out the match, and even then, your Ram's and Gold barbs could be a problem if they pick on the dwarfs.

Some members have kept Fire Bellied Toads with fish by using a large volume of water; but your toads could end up gobbling up the fish or if a Cory Cat get's stuck in their throat, die trying .

My recommendation would be to consolidate your fish so a tank free's up and then convert that tank to a frog only set-up. If you like idea, look at this Frog Forum - Choosing a Frog or tell us what size tank you have and we can propose a frog to keep in it. Good luck !

Man I don't know how I echoed my self but I will agree with Carlos 100%
When you consolidate some and free up a tank and let us know what size it is we can defiantly offer some ideas.

BTW I have been keeping 7 ADF's with neons , ottos , corys , cherry barbs and shrimp for over 3 years with
no problems and actuality one of the ADF's and a cory are best buds and play with each other from time to time.

Well, I don't want any thing being eaten or killed in the tank, so it will probably be best to buy their own tank. I will be starting a fish room, and I recently decided to add some butterflies in their own enclosure thingy so why not add some frogs lol
I would probably end up with a ten gallon or twenty gallon. Probably a ten since I will be breeding fish. What types of frogs would be good for this? I would like dart frogs but I don't think I will go with them. I like bumble bee toads, fire belly toads, most frogs as long as they have color. I would also like to keep a group.

Right now I have 6 freshwater tanks. 1 25Gal, 2 3Gal(Male Bettas), 1 5.5Gal(Male Betta and 3 Neon Tetras till they are large enough to go in the main tank), 1 1Gal (Red Cherry Shrimp) Plus a 'pond' outside with goldfish.
