FBT breeding

Yesterday afternoon, I heard an unfamiliar noise. I traced it to the new paludarium that my new FBT are in. One of the toads was in the water, calling. This morning I found a pair of them amplexus. Frankly, this is the first time I've had FBT mating, so...

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make sure the eggs, if any are laid, turn into tads, and the tads turn into toadlets?

You seem to have a nice pond setup for them there. Put in some live plants, if you don't already have them. I would put in some lettuce, eventually, keep the water clean, no strong filters that will suck up the taddies.
I don't have experience with tads of this species but I have raised other tads. They all pretty much like vegetable matter to munch on, and algae. When their legs start to pop out, give them an easy way out of the water or else they could drown.
