John30507 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 How will I know when they have mated and/or when enough is enough/good try/ not working out between the two? Link to comment
this1fish Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I don't know if they will mate that soon. But you'll know that they have paired up when the fighting stops. You'll see dispute here and there with the male twitching like crazy(it's a courtship). You'll know it's not working out when one keeps getting the crap beaten out of it. Link to comment
John30507 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 I want to try to order one off of the internet, simply because it is cheaper. How would I know what size mine would be considered? Link to comment
Duncan Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I have tried maroon pairing before and its not easy. Mine failed. I thought they worked it out. After a few days of cosy snuggling, the female chased the male so hard that he jumped. I wasn't there. If you really want to do it, get the smallest male you can find. Have to be less than 1 inch.

this1fish Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I have never order online so i wouldn't know. Your best pick out be to go buy one at the store so you see it first hand. Link to comment
John30507 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 Mine is about an inch. Well.. about an inch and a half. It is hard to tell though because it is still hidden. Anyways, I have to go to bed now because of an ortho apointment tomorrow. Link to comment
John30507 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 He is moving more inside the cave now, not just standing still. I am soooo tempted to chase the thing around with a turkey baster to make it acctually swim around. If I do that it will probbably hate me forever and kill its self. Link to comment
John30507 Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 It is in a different place in the cave. It looks like it is pondering the thought of exiting. Link to comment
