fish and frog ?

can you place a dwarf african frog in with a betta fish, I've seen varying things and figured i'd ask just to make sure.

The flowing fins of the betta will most likely be too tempting for the frog to ignore and he will try to stuff them into his mouth. The betta in turn will most likely peck at the frog given the opportunity.

You may get lucky and they may leave each other alone but more likely than not it will not go well.

i woul dsay no, bettas can be extremely agressive, mine tries to kill the snails in his tank, no idea how he even sees them but... i know a lot of places will say you can do this, but i wouldn't risk it.
