    Default Should i add a friend

    I currently have a 26 gal tank with a fluval edge
    rated for 40 gal
    Gizmo african claw was first installed settled
    nicely for a month' despite good advice i added 2 rescued
    Gold fish medium sized, all 3 get on great!
    Maybe apart from feeding time where gizmo gets
    a little frantic;
    I have been offered another african claw
    from local petshop and its on a trial basis
    Question will my tank sustain the 2 frogs &
    2 goldfish?
    I change 8 gallon every 2-3 days using cycle
    At the momment.
    Appreciate answers as will be picking him up tomm

    If they're the same size, possibly. Also worth noting, you should keep them separate for a while, and just monitor the newcomer for any signs of disease before putting him/her with your current frog. You wouldn't want them both getting sick and dying, right? Also worth noting goldfish are one of the worst things to keep with frogs, they produce a lot of ammonia in the form of stale food and feces. The frogs also might try eating them if given the chance. Here's some helpful articles for you: http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/quarantine.shtml http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/M...isasters.shtml http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/cyclingEDK.shtml http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/foods.shtml http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/foods2.shtml http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/worms2.shtml And some things to watch out for with your new addition: http://www.xenopus.com/disease.htm http://clawedfrogs.tripod.com/id33.html http://aquaticfrogs.tripod.com/id10.html Thanks for reading by the way!
