RE: dodgy RAC
Hi all
Maybe the people that have collected Notho's in the
wild can answer.
When Guy said that a male Notho will drive any female
to spawn, I remembered that sometimes you get more than
one Notho in the same pool in the wild. How do they
breed true, without breeding with the wrong female.
There must be some way that they know. Even saying that
it unnatural for a RAC male and KOR female to be
together, the same thing will happen in nature, maybe
just in a animal footprint than a glass tank.
Cheers Rudolph
