The Golden Dwarf African Frog is an extremely popular, fully aquatic species that is a classic in the aquarium hobby and it can be an excellent addition to the planted aquarium!
The Golden Dwarf African Frog (Hymenochirus curtipes) is a fully aquatic species that is native to slow-moving and stagnant waterways of Sub-Saharan Africa. Unlike the related African Dwarf Frog (Xenopus laevis), it maintains a small size of less than 3 inches (7.5 cm) and can be an excellent member of many community aquarium setups. 
The Golden Dwarf African Frog is a hardy species that is much less skittish than many other frogs and toads. While it is not too particular about water parameters, this species does require very clean water with very gentle flow. Regular maintenance is essential since it is a messy and voracious eater. It will thrive in an aquarium with some decor for cover. The Golden Dwarf African Frog is not afraid to jump and climb, so a secure, tight-fitting lid is necessary to prevent it from escaping its enclosure.
