What does fighting look like?

In general terms, it looks alot like amplexus. The frogs that are fighting will grasp each other with their front limbs and attempt to push each other over. Often times they will get on top of each other and hold their opponents down. The weaker frog will submit after a while. In the vivarium the dominant frog will become the alpha frog while any other competition will be dominanted over food, breeding sites and the actually course of breeding. It's an interesting sight to see.
