Has she built a burrow in the tank? And do you handle her? It borrowed already, but sadly, I do not see her "butt" like I thought I would. Will keep looking. 6D & 70D

MartinG. THREAD STARTER Goldmember 2,247 posts Likes: 7 Joined May 2009 Location: Montreal, Qc, Canada More info | I thought I would do a little follow up for those interested.  Decided to lift that leaf and found a nice little trap door.  looked down the hole and there it was, perfectly plugging the burrow, I thought they would do this at the surface, but that is even more efficient... I had a lot of trouble trying to take that picture, sorry again.  hope you liked it Martin 6D & 70D
