What I am wondering is if you might know how long it takes for silver dollars to grow? Since they are in the 10 gallon tank will it take longer for them to grow?
I am not sure how fast silver dollars grow but in a 10 gallon tank they will die prematurely especially with a clawed frog in there (it won't do well either but is hardier than the fish). The bioload of these two animals is just too high.

A 10 gallon tank is barely suitable for one adult ACF alone. Also you have to keep in mind that silver dollars need to be kept in schools, they are 100% a schooling fish.

Honestly man I would keep the frog in the 10 gallon and move the silver dollar to a larger tank and get a few more silver dollars. They just won't survive together very long in a 10 gallon, it's just too small.
