Ooh, how exciting for you. Do you have the potential problem of the babies being eaten? Or will you move to a 'nursery'?

at the moment, we are still trying to work out when they are ready to give birth so we do have the potential prob of them being eaten. we do have a birthing tank though so we just need to watch them and try get them in it quick enough
