    To be honest, 10 gallons is the bare minimum for one ACF so water quality may be playing an issue here if they are all in the same tank.
    Is it filtered? Any live plants? How often and how much water do you change with the water changes?

    A balance of genetics (like Tony and ACF I have had in the past) and environment play a huge roll in the development of these frogs.
    Two are in a twenty the small two that still look like babies are in a 10 gallon. Both are appropriately filtered with weekly partial water changes. For plants I have some marimo as my frogs dig in the substrate. I'm wondering if it's genetics or they are just slow growers as previously suggested.

    Just a thought, but are your big frogs girls? With my frogs, I have noticed that girls grow faster than the boys. Also, what temp do you keep your frogs? Lower temps can slow down growth a bit. I keep my tanks at 72 degrees F which gives them a steady growth rate.
