no progress. the male is afraid of the female. I think i'll have to get a smaller female as the male is unable to overpower the female.

yeah it's a good deal. on the contrary, it is actually easier to maintain it. Only requires the occasional filter mat change

Icic.. Actually i dun like to keey crays together.. Cos those timid de will just always be hiding cos scared of the fierce de.. I prefer to seperate them and let them roam.. Somemore hard to feed.. Cos the fierce one always will snatch.. Anyway i bought sponge le.. More suitable for my tank and bioload.. Sponge just squeeze in water only.. So easy.. I think crays sponge is best.. Cos their shit is always at the bottom de.. Seldom filter can suck it up right?

sian.. came home saw a few dead fishes body parts on the gravel.. i hate it when they kill more than they can eat.. hope they can clear by tonight.. if not tmr i must scoop out le.. if not they rot in water spoil my water parameters..

haha yeah the fiercer crayfish will always get more food. not very good for the timid crayfish as I think it will feel stressed

Ya.. Tt's why i seperate my quads.. If not the small one whole day hiding only.. When seperate the smaller quad still will run ard de.. Maybe tonight i take away the divider add more pvc pipes see they can live together or not.. My clarkiis still small.. I wanna let them get used to each other so never seperate..
