Well...I hope she has spawned.
She has spawned before but I had very hard water and made the mistake of checking the eggs...they were eaten the day after lifting the pot.
This time I have an RO unit supplying water, and have left her alone. she has been in the upturned pot for around 5 days now (I was beginning to think she had died but a quick check with a torch revealed her hiding in the pot).
I havent seen her outside of the upturned pot for days but she comes out when I turn the lights off the tank.
Have to decide wether to remove the male now...theyre on their own in a 2' x 1' x 1' tank...what do people think? The male is very nervous and is at the back of the tank most of the time now.
Ill post some pics when she brings the babies out.
