Breeding season in the Northern Hemisphere is March-August
Sexual maturity is typicaly reached after 3-5 years for wild frogs
American Bullfrogs should have @ least a 55-gal tank. (Go larger if you can, I have read that
hydroponic flood tables work well. However you will need to construct your own screened lid)
UVA & UVB lighting is needed,a basking area is a must.
Males are very territorial
Frogs ahould be able to fully submerge themselves in the aquatic part of your setup
I have never heard of anyone captive breeding this species in a small indoor enclosure. Not saying it cant be done though. I think you would have better luck with a larger outdoor setup. Try checking out http://www.fao.org/fishery/cultureds...catesbeiana/en
Good luck..
