So tonight i tought i'd remodel my big 3ft H.Incei tank. (some of you have seen it)
I get the new plants and rocks ready. Tubs close by as i know there is still a few Incei's in there.
I lift up the first rock.......a female with an egg sack. catch the female and remove the sack.
Second rock....ok..a female with a sack. remove her and the sack aswell
Rock no. 3.....um...a female with a sack.. my mood dropped as i knew i had a problem wih these (now) 3 egg sacks.
I am almost to scared to continue.
Rock no. 4....a sjies.. another female also with an egg sack. I just want to cry. and its now coz i am happy.
so with four females and four egg sacks out already..i needed a strong frink by now.
Lifted the fith rock.......
and yes...you guessed it. A female and a sack.
Egg sacks should be a great thing. But in this case they were un-planned. 4 weeks prior to tonight,3 males came out of this tank in a period of 2 weeks. I did not add these as it was a communal baught still as juvies.
My machanical mom as made for 3 egg sacks in the rotating compartments... In there is a Incei sack from another female, the Elegance sack and the Faciatum sack...There is also an Incei sack that was just opened a few days ago that are 1st instars. The only sack thats not 100% mine is the Fasciatum's
The communal was kept naturally.. no extra heat. only a light thats set on a timer for the live plants.
I am proud of these females, but would prefer if they dont surprise me like this again.lol
Success is just like being pregnant ... Everybody congratulates you but nobody knows how many times you were screwed in the process
