Hello Birger
they cant be sexual mature yet??
I bet they can :D
Seen Leporacanthicus L7 size 130mm laying 100 eggs.

But breeding such Leporacanthicus is not so easy.
My L91 spend nights in the same cave since about 3 months and nothing ever happened so far :lol:

Kinda same with my L240's

Cheers Simon
