One of my tanks is a 5g which originally had 1 male betta and two african dwarf frogs. This arrangement seemed to be working out fine until one day one of the frogs was dead. I didn't think too much of it until a couple of weeks later the fish went fins up. Both of these deaths seemed out of the blue, as both were eating fine and acting normally up until I looked and they were dead. Well, a couple more weeks pass, and as water params were fine, I thought "strange coincidince." Well, I decided to move a male betta in from a smaller tank, and as I was releasing him in after acclimation, my boyfriend says, "maybe the frog is killing them." but it was a little late. anyway, does this theory hold true? I have never heard of agressive ADFs, but that does not mean they don't exist. When I feed them, they do seem to squabble-the frog nips at the betta and the betta flares up a storm. Do these frogs even have teeth? How would the frog kill the others? has anyone heard of aggressive adfs? And I thought I needed to worry about the betta's aggression!
