I recently typed up a bunch of kuo-toa for an adventure and thought others might appreciate a quick copy and paste of the work if they have any desire to send their players against the amphibious beasties. I made a couple changes that deserve note: pincer staffs are now pincer tridents so they can be used under water without penalty, I gave all the fighters and the 7th-level whip the exotic weapon proficiency for the pincer trident as a racial bonus feat. I also included stats for summoned monsters and my version of a froghemoth "pet" for the kuo-toa.

Lightning Bolt (Su): Two or more kuo-toa clerics (whips) can generate a stroke of electricity every 1d4 rounds. The whips must join hands to launch the bolt but only need to be within 30 ft. of each other while it builds. The bolt deals 1d6 points of electrical damage per whip but a Reflex save (DC 15 + number of whips) halves the amount.
Adhesive (Ex): Kuo-toas use their own body oil to craft an organic adhesive used on their buckler shields. Anyone who makes an unsuccessful attack against a kuo-toa must succeed on a DC 14 Reflex save or the attacker’s weapon sticks to the shield allowing a free disarm attempt by the kuo-toa (opposed attack rolls, 2-handed weapons +4, light weapons -4) without provoking an attack of opportunity. If the disarm fails the kuo-toa gets another free attempt each successive round on its turn, the weapons wielder may attempt to pull the stuck weapon free with a Strength check (DC 20).
Keen Sight (Ex): Kuo-toas can spot moving object or creature if it is invisible and ethereal.
Light Blindness (Ex): Abrupt exposure to bright light blinds kuo-toas for 1 round. On subsequent rounds they are dazzled (–1 atk, spot and search) while operating in bright light.
Slippery (Ex): The oily film covering a kuo-toa makes them impervious to most forms of confinement including magical and non-magical webs.
Skills: Kuo-toas have a +8 racial bonus on Escape Artist checks and a +4 racial bonus on Spot and Search checks.
A kuo-toa has a +8 racial bonus on any swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.
FIENDISH OCTOPUS (summon monster I): CR 1; Small Magical Beast (augmented animal, extraplanar, aquatic; HD 2d8; hp 9; Init +3; Spd 20 ftl, swim 30 ft.; AC 16 (touch 14, flat-footed 13); Base Atk +1; Grap +2; Atk +5 melee (0, arms); Full Atk +5 melee (0, arms) and +0 melee (1d3, bite); SA Improved Grab, smite good (+2 atk and dmg); SQ Ink cloud, jet, low-light vision, darkvision, cold and fire resistance 5, SR 7; SV Fort +3, Ref +6, Will +1; Str 12, Dex 17, Con11, Int 3, Wis 12, Cha 3.

Skills-Listen +9, Spot +9, Swim +8*. Feats-Alertness, Diehard, Endurance, Multiattack, Weapon Focus (tentacle).
SA-Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability the froghemoth must hit a creature of Large size or smaller with a melee attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can try to swallow the opponent (bite) or transfer the opponent to its mouth on the following round. Transferring an opponent to its mouth is a free action that automatically deals bite damage.
SA-Swallow Whole (Ex): A froghemoth can try to swallow a grabbed opponent that has been transferred to its mouth by making a successful grapple check. Once inside the froghemoth the opponent takes 2d6 points of acid damage per round. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light piercing or slashing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the stomach (AC 14).
*Electricity Immunity (Ex): A froghemoth takes no damage from electrical attacks, however, if it is the subject of an electrical attack that would deal damage it is slowed for one round as though by the spell of the same name.
*Skills: A froghemoth has a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.

SA-Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability the froghemoth must hit a creature of Large size or smaller with a melee attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can try to swallow the opponent (bite) or transfer the opponent to its mouth on the following round. Transferring an opponent to its mouth is a free action that automatically deals bite damage.
SA-Swallow Whole (Ex): A froghemoth can try to swallow a grabbed opponent that has been transferred to its mouth by making a successful grapple check. Once inside the froghemoth the opponent takes 2d6 points of acid damage per round. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light piercing or slashing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the stomach (AC 14).
*Electricity Immunity (Ex): A froghemoth takes no damage from electrical attacks, however, if it is the subject of an electrical attack that would deal damage it is slowed for one round as though by the spell of the same name.
*Skills: A froghemoth has a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.
