One of my cynops orientalis started laying eggs recently. She's been going at a rate of maybe 3-4 per day for half a week, and it's really doing a number on my plants. She's very finicky and tends to crush two leaves for every one she lays an egg on. It's a freshly planted tank, so a lot of the plants haven't had a good chance to take hold, and I'm worried I'll lose a bunch of them.
I've tried making plastic strips for her, experimenting with both clear and opaque plastics of differing widths, but no luck. About how many eggs can I expect her to lay, and has anyone had any luck with fake silk plants?
Thanks!
