Blue Phase Whites Tree Frogs in Amplexus - I have a few question

[roxngal]

My gorgeous Blue Phase Whites Tree Frogs have been in Amplexus on and off for the past 3 days but she hasn't laid any eggs yet. (I'm still hopeful that it will happen) Does anyone know how much water should be in the bottom of the rain chamber for her to lay them in? I had only a couple of inches because I am afraid of them not being able to swim very well, however, I have read different opinions and need some help. Should I have only a couple of inches or more like 4 or 5 inches for them? Also...here is a picture of the lucky couple...is this really Amplexus...he isn't holding on under her belly but seems to grab on to her shoulders. Is this how it goes for Whites Tree Frog's?

Any help would be appreciated. This is the first time that I have bred my Blue Phase Whites.

Here is a picture of the happy couple. Charlie and Maddie. (Pretty sure that she is gravid)

The next are pictures of Charlie and Maddie in their 'true blue' color in their normal terrarium setting rather than the light green that they have turned in the rain chamber.

Looking forward to any suggestions.

I'm pretty sure it does not need to me much but hopefully one of the breeders will pipe up and let us know.

Good luck.

NIce looking frogs! I keep a large container, about 18 inches long and maybe 6 inches deep. Be sure to have plenty of sticks leaves, rocks, etc for the female to hold onto. I once had a male mossy frog drown a female when she couldnt haul out.

That amplxus is funny looking, usually the male holds her below the forelimbs. Here's some shots of mine in amplexus...
