In anticipating the arrival of my princess, have decided to move out all tanks from my room into the living room. Tow days ago, i decided to make the shift shince the new tank is ready (Finger crossing). To my surprise, a newly purchased 4" male trapped a female in a cave formed by a overturn pot. BUt sad to speak, no eggs. :(

Was advised, so long there is an attempt, sure got chance hope this time round will see results.

Here the gravid female (left one n only) See the big male beside?

Thanks. This new setup, the caves look good, i see males testing the caves and seem well fitted although they rotates among the cave, probably wanting to get the best cave. :)

From my limited experience, if they have a go at it once, they will definately try again...
