My 26 gallon currently has 1 male blue gourami, 5 zebra danios, 5 corydoras, 1 BN pleco, and 2 WCMM. I will be removing the WCMM and adding a school of harlequin rasboras, and I might add a couple more cories and danios to get thier numbers up. I am also considering bamboo shrimp, though the gourami could be a problem.

Could I add a few (how about 3?) dwarf frogs? I don't know if they are compatible with my current fish, nor do I know how much bioload they would be. (Plecs are messy, shrimp are hardly anything- where do ADFs rank?)

The tank has sand substrate and is well planted with plastic plants.

(I posted this in the invert section, but thought I might get more replies here...)
 
keeping frogs in with fish can starve them, as the food is gone by the time they have found it.

But, if you decide to get some, make sure they are dwarf, and not clawed frogs. Clawed frogs with eat everything in your tank.
 

Thank you, Wilder. I read that, but it mostly talks about keeping them in smaller tanks, and dosen't tell me if the danios would nip too much, or anything like that. It says to keep with peaceful tank mates, but some of mine are borderline- would the gourami be an issue? Would the danios nip him too much? I didn't see anything about keeping them in a larger tank, only about 5 or 10 gallons, at most. I have googled, but I haven't been able to find much, aside from that page. :/
 
"I read that they grow to 6", surely this must be fingers to toes (ie pulled out)."

I have never seen a swarf frog get that big, but african clawed frogs can get upto 8". There is so much confusion between these, and, to be honest, if you dont know how to tell for sure and you dont haev the space for a monster that will eat anything, dont bother getting any.

My African Clawed frog has eaten guppies, platies, a 10" eel, a fully grown convict cichlid. Just letting you know the danger ;)
