It wont do any harm if you see you are right, but if just by accident you are wrong, and they are the different species...as soon as that albino fit a dwarf in its mouth.....you will have no dwarf.....

Great if you have 2 clawed frogs though, but bear in mind that when they start getting huge, your need a huge tank to match.....

lol ok, but i think i have a african dwarf frog but mine doesnt have webed front feet.

Dwarf Clawed frogs DO have webbed front feet.

Xenopus, or Clawed Frogs (the bigger ones) DON'T have webbed front feet.

I think you have two Xenopus frogs.

(IMO, they're the more fun of the two, great things they are!)

Yup! They are fab froggies and are really fun to watch.

Unfortunatly, tonnes of them are sold as babies by local fish shops etc.. and most of the people who buy them don't have any idea of the size they grow to, the size of tank they need and the fact that fish shops tell lots of them that they can live happily in their community fish tank.......frog keeps growing.....fish keep dissapearing.....

It would actually be funny....if it wasn't sad....
