 African dwarf vs African clawed

i want one because i know they`re aquatic, Ive had a dwarf b4. the clawed gets big right? i have a 5gal and have been wanting to get something to fill it. i had neon tetras and a dwarf in there but the fish got ich and it got complicated with the frog and everything, half the fish died and the package on the treatment for the fish told me i could leave the frog in there while treating the fish but the frog died. so now I’m thinking i want another one bcuz they`re so cute and not hard to maintain.. so can i put two in there or only one? and i just want to make sure I’m getting the right sized frog bcuz I’m pretty sure the clawed frog gets pretty big after a certain age but the dwarf stays small

You can fit 2 dwarfs in a 5. I wouldn’t put fish in there, maybe a snail is the only thing I’d consider adding to the tank. Fish can bully the frog and steal it’s food. ACF’s get the size of an adult hand, and need a lot of space. Go for the dwarfs.

Remember to cycle your tank for a month without the frogs first. You can look up on google, cycling an aquarium, if you don’t know why.

Good luck!
