Acf & Betta?

[x-Twinkle-x]

I am still trying to find my albino ACF a new home since he tried to make a snack out of one of my swordies, but I have near enough given up. If I had the room to buy him a tank for himself, I would have kept him, but I cant. The only thing Im thinking now is that maybe I could move him into my 3gal with one of my CT betta boys? But the last thing I would want is for him to eat the betta boy!

Is it a high risk?

By ACF do you mean African Clawed Frog? if so then yes it is a very high risk, this frog can reach a size of around 6" usually and obviously at that size the betta would be a nice snack, although even a 2" to 3" clawed frog is likely to attempt to eat whatever he shares his tank with.

My old ACF used to eat adult mollies, betta wouldn't stand a chance, 3g also wouldn't really be big enough for something that will get about the size of your fist.

Oh, Im not sure what Im going to do with him then! I cant find anyone that will take him! At the moment he is living in a critter keeper thingy, which obviously isnt fair on him at all!

You really need a 10gallon tank minimum for an ACF, no fish with em, unless they're food... You may be able to try some Zebra Danios as they're quick, but doubtful that they'd last too long...
