    Re: Breeding Difficulties

    Breeding isnt a sure fire thing. Sometimes they get down and dirty, sometimes they do not. Its hard to tell you, "what" will make them breed. Chances are nothing that you are going to do is going to get them TO breed. Give em time.

    How long are you leaving him in there? How many times have you tried? How much of a rest are you giving him? He may be stressed out.

    Well I had him in with the girl for about a week but I took him out cuz I had to feed him and the female is shedding so he's not in the same tank with her right now.

    Thank you for the actual weight. Both are still on the low end weight wise, which could mean they just aren't sexually mature yet. How old are each of them?

    As of now 260 grams, about where you start right? In all seriousness I've seen people recommend 600 as a good grammage for males. 800 grams isn't overly large for a male.
