When I got home last night my female was back to her normal behavior and not hanging out in cave. So I took a look and there was nothing there. She is still very yellow but her lateral bands are more evident. I suspect she ate the spawn. After taking a closer look at her 'cave' I have to say that it was not very good; not a lot of shelter. Since it was prefered over the 4" flower pots I think I will work on better caves. Paul Evans _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
