I have a male and female who share a 20 gal tank and are about 3 years old. They have just mated and hundreds of eggs are now everywhere. My question is that my male and female refuse to QUIT mating. They have been at it for a solid 6 days now and eggs are still being layed. Do they need to be separated? I am worried that my female may be exhausted or get hurt. Any feedback would be appreciated.
