Hello everyone,

I have a few questions that I am hoping someone may be able to answer!

Firstly, what is the average body length for an AF Gabonensis? I have read 2cm. My female is currently 1.5cm.

How long does a mature male last? Mine matured on the 15th of May.

Are there any special requirements that need to be fulfilled in order for these to be bred optimally, I.e conditioning?

This is my first time breeding a species with so little information surrounding them. Any advice, or information regarding them will be helpful, and much appreciated!

Thank you.

Check with Catfishrod, he told me they are really difficult to breed due to the female

They apparently like to eat their sacs.
I'm pretty sure they're "communal" so if you have the money just get a bunch of juvies or slings and put them together and wait for them to mature. Then, just add a mature male or two. Of course you'll probably have to condition them first (don't know when you'd want to do that).
