Guess what, I bought some koi fish pellets and she ate it! Only 2 pieces which she tore apart so probably 1 piece total, but it's a start. I have Elodia in the tank, but she doesnt eat it. I put nightcrawlers in her tank, but she didn't eat that either. I put the basking lamp closer to the basking spot and she has been there ever since. I have some baby rosy's in there, but she is not chasing them either. I dropped the water lvl to about 4 inches from 6. I was thinking about putting in a used tea bag for water conditioning, what do you think? I will try to find some crix tomorrow. I know she is gravid and I have no egg laying chamber. So this week I will divide my tank into 50/50 water and land instead of 50/50 water and rocks on one side with 1/2 inch of water above. Let me know what you think. THanks.
