Kribs preparing to lay eggs?

[Jimmy120883]

I have a pair of Kribs and they have dug out all the subtrate from inside and around the back of a coconut and piled it up outside the entrace. Are they preparing to mate and lay eggs in the Coconut?

That appears to be the case . They will spawn inside that coconut .

In many cases, the female will wall herself in to protect the eggs and then larvae. I'd expect eggs within the next 36 hours.
