Re Scr. Cauvetti Question



HI;
     My experience has been just about the same except I do better with a 
little warmer water, around 75.   When I have collected eggs I generally 
found more in the bottom mops rather than the top...  LOTS of live food 
seems to be imperative.  An adult pair can be pretty impressive if you can 
get them out in the open...
