Very nice. I used a 5g bucket half full and would plunger the cave up and down to rinse the fry out.

pics of wigglers, hope you can see them they're in back left hand corner, and cave opening is about 2.5in. and 7in. long and yes it seems like wide opening may be easier for male to coax female in and eggs are all the way in the back of the cave, should be interesting to see what other caves are preferred as other species mature and spawn
