Giant Slippery Frog is one of the 130 Planet Zoo 2 launch species. It is housed in a Exhibit habitat, accepts the Lakes & Rivers biome, carries a no barrier requirement and is listed at 0.25 m (length). It shares a biome and an enclosure type with 10 other species, but the official species data rules out every one of those pairings, so it needs a habitat of its own.
Every figure on this page comes from the official Planet Zoo 2 Zoopedia export rather than trailer footage: biome, enclosure type, barrier grade, size and the compatibility verdicts are all taken from the game's own data.

Giant Slippery Frog needs a Exhibit enclosure and accepts the Lakes & Rivers biome. The barrier requirement is none at all, and that is the number to check before building: a Grade 4 animal behind a Grade 1 wall is the most common way a first zoo stalls.
Giant Slippery Frog shares a biome and an enclosure type with 10 other species, but every one of those pairings is ruled out by the official data, because one side of each pair is officially solitary.
10 of the species that accept the Lakes & Rivers biome cannot share an enclosure with the Giant Slippery Frog, because one side of the pair is officially solitary. These are the pairings people ask about most, so they are spelled out rather than left as an unexplained gap.

4 species share at least one biome with the Giant Slippery Frog but use a different enclosure type — a land habitat against an aquarium or a flying aviary — so they cannot be mixed however well the biomes line up.
Common Hippopotamus, Eurasian Beaver, Gharial, West Indian Manatee
Giant Slippery Frog is classed as Solitary in Frontier's Social & Reproduction notes: “Giant slippery frogs are solitary and do not interact except to mate or compete over mates.” On size the game lists 0.25 m (length) for the male and 0.25 m for the female. Size and weight together decide the minimum habitat footprint, so use the female figure when you are sizing a breeding pair rather than a display animal.
