Additional Information
Miscellaneous Information:
I am not expecting these to spawn, esp. in the timeframe of the challenge. If they do it's a bonus.
Thanks to Reeflections for the stock. Both specimens were added to the tank and feed on frozen food that night. 1 decided to take an excursion into the weir later that same night - which feeds 100% into the skimmer.
Individual was retrieved & this has now been rectified and should not happen again.[/b]
