I currently have a 10 gallon with just 3 African Dwarf Frogs. The tank currently has a double sponge filter run by an airpump rated for 20 gallons. I do 20% weekly water changes. Could I add some White Clouds to this setup?

I was also thinking of getting a Penguin 125 for this tank, in place of the sponge filter. If I do that, how many White Clouds could I fit in this tank?

I'm really not sure about ADFs and bioload....I'm guessing with the Penguin and frequent water changes you could have 5-7?

I would also say 5-7 just make sure they are at least 1 to 1.5 inches long because i have heard of them eating fish. Don't know if it's true. But if you can get 3-4 golds and 3-4 normal white clouds because they are stunning.

I had these ADFs in with 1" to 1 1/2" zebra danios. There is no way the ADFs could eat a fish that size. So I know the White Clouds will be fine. I was actually thinking 7 would be the max. I guess that's what it will be then, 7 WCMMs and 3 ADFs, with the Penguin filter of course.
