Does anyone have any experience breeding African Clawed Frogs? Any tips or tricks to get them to breed?

I had african clawed frogs awhile ago that bred. I didnt have to do anything. I just kept the temperature and all that stuff perfect and they did it on their own without any help from me. Sadly though a few weeks after breeding both frogs died because of an electrical short circuit or something like that during a lightning storm so i couldnt tell you what to do after they mate. Now that i look at it i havent been realy helpful at all sorry.

Mine breed almost constantly, and I don't do anything to trigger it. I'm raising over 100 tads, and it sure is fun. Just give them the right temps and good clean water as said, and they should breed for you.

laters,

My understanding is that if you let the water level drop (evaporation) about 4 or 5 inches and then suddenly in one day raise it back up - that they will often breed.

Never tried that - never had an ACF - I live in Cali where they aren't legal.
