    Question ADFs mating but no babies- help!

    Hi guys,
    I just made this in attempts to find help. I currently have 2 ADFs- Kermit and Miss Piggy and a algae eating fish (its not a placo) in a 10gallon tank.
    I have noticed my frogs several times in the past "hugging" but never any eggs even though we watched closely for them.

    my frogs are currently "hugging" again right now... I have done a lot of reading on mating ADFs and what to do with the eggs etc and I get it. This brings me to my problem- I never see any eggs. I am not sure if they just have a quickie and dont produce any eggs? or maybe we were wrong and theyre both males or both females (I find this VERY unlikely) and doing it as a dominant thing? I would take the eggs out as soon as I saw them, except for I never see them produce any. Kermit just "hugs" Miss Piggy for a while and thats it... he lets go sooner or later, having produced no eggs, and nothing ever happens.
    Why is this?
    Is there something I can do to promote egg production? or encourage Kermit to hang on a little longer?
    Thanks!

    and now they are done... I just checked on them. one is under the bubbler and the other is behind the heater thing... I read that they are suposed to stay hugging for like 6+ hours... maybe this is the problem?
