I think she stole them on purpose. The smaller female wasn't as good at defending her brood as the dominant one and they would meet in the middle and spar for a bit before the smaller one would give up. The dominant female was always sneaking over to the other ones side of the tank and I think she lead them away. One day she had about 20 and the other one had maybe 8 or so and the next day the first one had about 30 or so of two different sizes. lol (BTW for clarification...dominant female #1's name is Akasha and smaller female #2's name is Claudia...named after the Vampires. LOL I also have Vlad, Radu, Lousie and LeStat).

I think the thread should probably go in General Freshwater but I'm sure a mod can move it for you.

There has recently been an increase in posts about kribs so I think your post may be very helpfull for someone who is new to keeping them.
