Default disaster with the banggai's

Well i have some bad news, I have only a female banggai left after my efforts into breeding them I was doing fine with all the babies feeding them enriched bbs infact i had 14/16 after 6weeks or so, thats when i tried to switch them to frozen, i tried to blend it in gradually and they started to eat it, so i tapered it off untill they were mostly eating frozen. I guess the conversion is were i lost most of the babies. Then i noticed the other day that my male was gone I am assuming that he got too much "loving" from the female and starved, i always had a hard time trying to fatten him up after, as i couldn't separate him. ANYWAYS moral of the story: isolate the male after and fatten him up for 2-3 weeks before putting him back with the female.
