The Albino Clawed Frog (Xenopus Laevis) is a common frog found in captivity today as well as laboratories. They are a very social animal and appear quite intelligent. They seem to be rather mysterious when it comes to their lifestyles. However, there is not a lot of information available for the common pet frog owner.
They are rather aggressive; therefore, an individual should be careful when placing them in tanks with fish. If the fish is smaller than they are, they may become dinner. I have my 2 frogs in a 55 gallon tank with rather large goldfish. They all get along great! They can be fed a variety of foods. I suggest Krill, as they love it. I give mine blood worms, meal worms, wax worms, shrimp pellets, and Reptomin sticks. I have found that they become friendly over time and will take food from your hands.
These frogs tend to shed repeatedly, so a good filtration system is needed.
They are very active frogs and quite the escape artists; therefore, make sure that there are no holes they could squeeze through. I learned the hard way, fortunately I found my frog in time and she survived. Just be careful!!!

they aer easy to take care of but you need to clean them regualry. they give off lots of bacteria so you have to be very careful. they can eat pellets you buy in the store or live crickets.

They can really make a mess in a short time, cloudy nasty water.
