Severum Spawning

[lokkochaa]

Does anyone know of a way to "instigate" spawning in Sevs?

I know with hipolo cats you put in cold water to mimic cold rainfall, does anything like this work with Sevs?

You could try, but if they arent ready or arent interested in each other, then they wont spawn. They can be picky of their partners.

Severums do usually take longer to pair than other similar species,

You could try increasing the temp to around 28C and see if this has any effect

Its around 28-30 at the moment. They went thru a huge mating ritual for hours, dug pits and keep shivering at each other buit so far no eggs
