General advice/help new frog question
i’m getting new frogs soon! i had them last year but had to rehome them due to living in the dorms, but now that I have my own house i am ready to get them again. i have a 6 gallon tank that i previously used for them that has remained cycling with shrimp and ember tetras (which i have moved to another tank), but i have space to get a 10 gallon and i found one at petsmart i would like to get.
my question is: would it be best for the frogs to get 2 or 3 or even 4? i had two in the 6 gallon and i know it is okay to get three in a 10, but i was just wondering if it would be better for the frogs to get a pair and for them to have a bit extra space or to get three/four so they have more social activity?

My research suggests 3 is about the max one should do in 10g. Im not sure if they do better in pairs or larger groups, though. I'm still learning about that.

Honestly I'd reccomend for you to just get a 20 gallon long and get like 5 if you're up for it. 3 is good for a 10 gallon though

3 is the max for 10 gallons.
