Barrie Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 normally they would be fungussed quickly if they are infurtile so Im not sure whats happening there It maybe that the fungus isnt showing up in the container your using so maybe if the container is clear, place a bit of someing black in behind?

imsweet Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 The container is clear :oops: will have another look. Just see one of the females sitting in the mop all the time without the male. Have taken it out for a couple of days and he chases them around when i put it back in. But still only 1-2 eggs max.
