Not up on frogs but I hear they are messy, but the mix looks good . . . I'd be a little wary about the flying fox . .. they can be territorial. They would be easier to keep though than the shrimp. For the Amano Shrimp to be effective as scavangers, Takashi Amano suggests 1 shrimp per gallon.

You might do better with Siamese Algae Eaters, or Oto cats . . . a couple of each and 2 corys. Personally I like the julii myself. If it's true that frongs are messy, you might be a bit overstocked. Maybe someone else has another take on that

Sounds fine to me.

The dwarf frogs arnt messy at all because they basically just sit in one spot all day. They do move around a bit but mosty only to dart up to get some air.

Make sure you feed your dwarf frogs blood worms or brine shrimp every couple of days and they should be fine.
