Gold African Dwarf Frog

All livestock are currently only available for in-store pickup. 

Golden African dwarf frogs, Hymenochirus boettgeri, are also known as Zaire dwarf clawed frogs, or gold aquatic frogs and are very common nowadays in the ornamental fish trade.

African dwarf frogs live their entire lives underwater but need to rise to the surface to breathe air because they have lungs, so care should be taken to allow for this in the aquarium - do not house in a fish tank taller than 18" (so they can reach the surface) and leave a gap between the water level and lid. They can prey upon smaller fish species so be careful not to house with anything it can fit in its mouth as it grows. House with peaceful tankmates - do not house with larger aggressive fish species either.

Gold Golden aquatic frogs are suitable for housing with bottom-feeders, and are safe with plants. Hiding places such as caves and perching places such as rocks are highly recommended though not essential.
