This cave works, – but in my opinion its also not ideal. What happened was that immidiately after the larvae was freeswimming they left the cave. Still some survived, – but the process was different than from the spawnings in a narrow cave, where the male was looking after the free swimming larvae some more days.
I am not saying we need to make it ‘as in nature’ :), certainly film canisters are not natural, – its more the wideness as Peter is also saying which I think might be a problem.
Does it not also make sense, that in a wide cave such as the one I used for my linkei’s its would be easier for any intruders to disturb ?
Anyway, I am still using this cave, since this particular male seems to like it, and theres only one pair in the tank.
