Anyone had any experience with these? I'm looking for something a little quirky in my tank and thought this could be a good fit. These are the ones that don't eat fish, or so I've been told..

There is a problem keeping them with fish. They are very slow eaters and often starve because the fish have eaten all the food, even when you syringe it close to them (they appear, er, rather stupid because of this), but they are great in a species tank with snails and shrimp.
If at first you don't succeed....
...get someone else to do it! :D

Enjoy your fish, shrimps and snails!

Hmm OK, maybe not the best idea then. Thanks ?

Just as a follow up to this, I actually purchased a congo frog a month after this thread: it's incredibly easy to keep, and makes a really interesting addition to a tank! :)
