Tips to trigger a pair to spawn

[chopper]

Hey guys, if anyone could give me any tips to get my pair of blue snakeskins to spawn, I,d be grateful.
They are 12/13 months old
temp = 32 degrees
PH = 6 to 6.4
tank = 4ft x 2 x 2, bare tank with 2 cones, bio filter
I do 10% and 20% water changes twice a week
I feed 2 cubes of beef heart twice a day
tank light is on timer from 9am to 9pm

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

Sunlight? they get a little sunlight through a glass door but only a little for a couple of hours in the morning, do you think that would be enough?

Barry White .. :lol:

try the usual tricks of the trade mate


larger w/c using pre heated / treated water.

feed them well cubes of beef heart? LFS stuff? ,, fatten them up mate, get a decent pellet, make your own beef heart mix, live brime.

larger water changes, 30/40%? how often should i do water changes do you think? and pre heated to the same temp as the tank?

[Hollowman]

Your tank is too hot, lower the temp to 28 degrees
