Well I had to redo some of their filtration system and make some noise for a few days in their room so I think I bugged them enough to make them not want to breed anymore becasue I haven't seen them do it in quite some time now. But one female in each pond (one has two girls, the other has three) is basking for the entire day on their "sandy beaches". Then each evening, they slip back into the water for the night. Both regularly dig small nest "divets" but no real substantial earth moving really.

I know about as much as you probably do (maybe even less) about breeding them so I guess I will feel my way along. It turns out Rico Walder of Signal Herp once bred this species back in the 90s so I have been bugging him to fill in the blanks on what I have gathered on this species.
