Description
African Dwarf Frogs hail from the slow-moving water systems of Central Africa. Growing up to 6cm in length, these freshwater frogs make fascinating pets.
African Dwarf Frogs are highly social animals and thrive best in groups of three or more. African Dwarf Frogs spend all of their time swimming under the water but they do need to come to the surface to breathe. Be sure that the aquarium housing your African Dwarf Frogs has a depth of less than 50cm so that the African Dwarf Frogs can safely swim to the surface. Consider a large gravel substrate or bare bottom tank to avoid risk of African Dwarf Frogs ingesting substrate.
African Dwarf Frogs are excellent jumpers. Be sure that your aquarium has a secure lid in situ.
At Wirral Aquatics we feed our African Dwarf Frogs live bloodworm.

Ordering livestock
We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.
If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.
If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
