cool thanks man. i have her in a glass chimney so they can look and not touch lol. and my male is now in depression cuz he got his manhood taken away lol!
np, just let them chill for a little while, release her after 3-5 days or until the male and female show a lot of intrest in each other, then release and watch them for 20 minutes to make sure they are ok. they should begin breeding immediately
now i have had the female out in the tank for a day and a half and its kind of weird neither of them nip. what does this mean? they just chill in there
I'm assuming he has built a bubble nest already, so he is ready to breed. This could mean that they are just getting used to each other again, I'm very surprised they never began breeding immediately or at least tried to bite each other. You know I would watch them if they still have not bred then this is a strange thing lol. Just wait and see, it could be a few days before they begin although they should have begun a long time ago. But patience is key, and don't leave her in the tank over night take her out and re-release her in the morning so that you can observe.
oops lol. they seemed to get along like a pair of a different species so i did leave them last night and everything has been fine. its so weird. and yes the male has made a HUGE! nest already
