My male wouldnt entertain my female for the first night that she was in the tank with him! Then when I awoke the female was under the nest and they had started to spawn! On my first attempt the male and female shared the tank for over 48 hours before spawning! I had initially tried to keep them serpate so they could see one and other but I only had her in a breeding trap and she kept leaping out so just left them to it! When I was going to remove the female they had spawned for me!
Hope it goes well for you! Good luck
