Well.. after thriving and having two successful broods of fry.. my female was lost to us on Christmas morning (all params are great..and she was eating greedily right up to her last meal the night before) Now my ( probably pregnant AGAIN!) male is looking so depressed.. every morning since, he goes up at dawn for their morning courtship greeting.. and searches for her.. it is sooo sad! Anybody know of someone local to So California that have any larger ( 3-4 in when curled up ) Reidi? Thanks for any help.. I am anxious to find him a companinon!
