I started with 10 belly crawlers, she ate 8 of them, but 1 escaped into the sump and I just discovered him there last week. I've got him growing out in a separate tank at the moment, and won't put them together until he puts on some size. So far, he's only 1/3 her size.

hard to tell from the surface, but looks like one lower near left.
