thanks for the advice, it seems she is trying to eat. i put in a couple mosquito fish today, and the male ate a big round female right after i put it in, and then i put in two smaller ones because i knew he was full. and a number of times the female attacked, and missed like 3 seperate times. and my brother said this morning she was hunting near the bottom, and tried to eat a mosq. fish and got a mouth full of sand. since yesterday the male at 7 mosquito fish, and today he was tail wagging and trying to mate with the female, but the female is too skinny and not feelin that yet.
