not a crab, the are fin nippers and will damage ur other fish
Frog - what kind? what other fish do you have?
If you get a frog u need to make sure the tank lid is secure

There not like your normal frogs, they have human colour skin, very small and very funky !
Ally - Thats what i thought but really wanted one, kinda find the crabs interesting but thought it could be dangerous with the little sucker i have.

How big is your tank?
I wanted 3 crabs for my tank, but decided against it as the fish would probably look worse for wear most of the time and the smaller fish would gradually be eaten
What about an Albino Cory?

Id be happy with 1 crab, but if dangerous prob not worth it !
Although saying that you get all sorts in marine tanks and the fish seem ok ?
Only a small little tank till i get my bigger one
Whats an Albino Cory? Any pics ?
Ill try and get pics of the human frogs i was talking about, they are madness

Sucker as in a Pleco?
Feeder -
Neons are evil
Mollies are nice, tbh dude if you want crabs then get yourself down to pets at home, get a 5gal tank for £15, put some funky gravel in there, and a heater, and have your own crab tank
Im hoping one day to have a big enough tank for one of these guys (crayfish) -
Just stick with normal fish, u shouldnt really get anything with long fins (fighter, angel fish) as you have neons and they will attack them
You could get some platies/mollies/guppies?
We have an upside down cory, looks just like the albimo one but swims upside down

as 3cm said, you can get one or the other in a smaller tank as will use a similar territory / hiding spot.
Aslong as the crab isnt too big you should be OK with it. And Im certain if you get a frog you need a rock or something above the water line for them to rest on as arent swimmers all the time.
