Basic Care: African Dwarf Frog
African dwarf frogs (Hymenochirus sp.) are often sold as additions to tropical freshwater fish aquariums or as "living art" to be kept in small glass vases or other displays. In fact, these frogs often do not compete well with aggressive tropical fish and fail to thrive in community aquariums. They also need a larger more complex environments than a 1 gallon vase filled with water lined with gravel in order to do well.
