Answer 1

Most frogs require a trigger to get the female to produce eggs.

The Dwarf African frog is no exception.

Gradually drain the tank water level down to around the 7cm (3") level over a period of 2 to 4 weeks. Then suddenly increase the water level back to normal using warm water so that the temperature of the water is increased to 28-30C (82-85F) and keep it there for 2 weeks. Ensure the frogs get enough high quality food (not just bloodworm). This should trigger the females frogs into generating eggs and will soon look noticeably fatter.
Once the female is ripe with eggs the male will grab her in a lumbar amplexus and begin the spawning dance. This consists of holding on to the female for many hours and if the female is receptive she will repeatingly swim and dive to and from the surface in a circular motion and release floating eggs near the surface and the male will release his sperm to fertilise them.

As many as 750 eggs may be released and these tend to scatter across the aquarium. The frogs may eat the eggs, so remove the adults. The eggs will hatch after 2-6 days and the 4mm tadpoles are carnivorus and will require high concentrations of infusoria and microscopic protozoans if they are not to starve.

After a few weeks the tadpoles will be large enough to eat whiteworm, baby brine shrimp, Cyclop-eez, etc.

Six weeks after hatching, the tadpoles will metamorphose into small frogs about 14mm long.
