After 3 years of having my trio of L134s/Compta they have finally spawned for me i thought they had but wasnt 100% but came home and couldnt resist looking in the males cave and there was about 30 eggs i now have them in a fry trap didnt want to but we are moving house a week on monday so thought it would be easier if i took them off him i will probably live to regret it.....

i got some funny looks off the mrs think running around the room and jumping up and down was a bit much but i dont Care im over the moon

Lost most of the eggs to fungus i have 8 left :wb::wb:

Male still has the female trapped but i did see her going in and out of the cave this morning looked like she was trying to reverse in but she didnt manage it whilst i was watching, hopefully they will spawn today certainly looked like she wanted to:thumbup:
