So I have three ADF's; I can't tell if they are males or females but they always seem to be.. on top of each other. And; I mean latched on.. little claw.. arms things wrapped around the bottom one.
I haven't seen any eggs around the top of the aquarium.. but they always seem to do it unless it's feeding time.

Is this a bad thing?

im not sure about dwarfs but with some other species of social frogs the males will mate with each other unless there is a female, even then that doesnt garentee eggs

ADFs do have a tendency to pile up on each other. I've got two and they do it all the time. How long have they been doing that for?

They aren't just on top of each other like in a pile.
One will have it's arms wrapped around the other one! >_O

Well, eigther you have two very desperate frogs, or they are gay (or bi?) ^^;
I had two male guppies like that. Didn't matter if I seperated them and placed each with 3 females, they only wanted eachother.
Kinda romantic imo
