3/5's of an adf will fit in that tank.

minimum of 5 gals mate

dont put 3/5 in ... think about nitrate

what you talking about. 3/5's designates "three fifths". 3-5, would designate "three to Five" 3/5's of a frog, in a 3 gallon tank, equates to, 5 gallon per frog!

eactly ... if you put 3 fiths of a frog in the tank it would be dead.... and youd probably get a nitrate spike

To get squiremaster's thread back on track............

You could easily keep two ADFs in a three gallon tank.

i would say you could have 2, definately no more, the fact is that most if not all, adf's will only take live/frozen foods, which assuming the filter is for a 3g tank, will put a lot of strain on it, you would have to ensure all uneaten food was removed.

numbers aside, (but i will stick with 5gallons each ) i never find any problem feeding ADF, just as i feed any fish. they eat flake, as well as frozen foods.
