African dwarf frogs get to be 1.5-2" max, they are tiny. Make sure its an ADF though and not an African Clawed frog, which gets much bigger at 5" and are very aggressive and eaters of fish. ADFs do not make noise. They are carnivores and should be fed a diet of worms, such as frozen bloodworms. Flake food and pellets are not a sufficient diet. They need a minimum of 1g each, and I wouldn't put one in anything too large as they are air breathers and need to get to the surface. They also should not be put with fast moving fish, IMO, or they will likely starve to death. They are almost completely blind and it will take them some time for them to find their food, even when dropped in their face. They will smell it out and eat though.
