i think.. as long as the sperm could penetrate the eggs..

i dont have any data or facts of how long each egg and sperm would last without being fertilized in the open..

but best bet is having the male having his tubing touches the eggs.. and then again you gotta try to see if the male is fertile as is too..


well good luck bro.. so much to learn as we go.. and thats the beauty of this hobby.. always something for us find and test out grinning

next time, don't give her a reason to lay eggs in places where the giant male can not get to.

like caves and bridges

From my experiences, even if the female does not like the male, she must lay her eggs anyway or she will die. When he sees the egg, he is going to use his might strenght to force his ways to the eggs. All it take is just one shot and you will have some frys. You can't win them all but do take some frys for trying.
