African Dwarf Frogs

I once had three african dwarf frogs, they would always fight and one eventually died. The remaining two fight daily. Does anyone know if this is normal behavior? Thanks.

Re: African Dwarf Frogs

They are really social creatures. Maybe you overcrowded them?

Re: African Dwarf Frogs

No, is not normal, 10 gallons per frog is a rule of thumb

Re: African Dwarf Frogs

I don't think 10 gallons per frog is a rule of the thumb. It would have a lot of space. There is no exact way to know how much space they need. Anyway, now I think about it, 3 frogs fighting each other isn't normal. One is a bully or they have a disease or they are overcrowded.

Re: African Dwarf Frogs

Sorry for the mastake,
African Dwarf Frogs are very peaceful and the don't fight, baybe you got them mix up for African Clawed Frogs.
Here is a web site that tells you how to tell them apart. Go to http://allaboutfrogs.org/ then click on Frog Info Central,then to Species Caresheets, then to African Dwarf Frog, and click on How to tell the Clawed frog from the Dwarf frog.

Re: African Dwarf Frogs

I just brought home a pair of African Dwarf Frogs yesterday, and they seem to be having a great time in their 10 gallon tank, with tetras as tank mates. no fighting at all, just swimming and hanging around.
