I see.. so even if they are successfully sexed (identified as male and female) it may not work out? Cause I'm willing to use my tank as the breeding tank if needed.. was more concerned about how to know if the female is carrying eggs and how to provide the land for her to nest/lay her eggs.

My female was almost killed by 2 males. Eggs can be felt if the female is gravid. Land area must be optimal for her to lay the eggs before she lays them.

Hmm ok.. I guess part of me felt tt if we could sort of restore the population balance then these beautiful creatures would not be endangered anymore.
