For a few weeks now ive had a 8x8x8 enclosure setup with greens on the bottom and cardboard pieces tied together for egg laying surfaces. I have about 10 in there at the moment, at one time had probably 20 but most of them died off after a bit. Ive seen them breed multiple times however whenever i check the cage i can never seem to find any eggs at all, the temperature is usually at 75 constantly and the humidity stays around 40-80. When i mist the enclosure it goes up more but basically stays around 50 most of the time.I have a small under tank heater underneath it just to provide a bit more warmth. I also have a reptisun 10.0 13 watt compact bulb on them because i read somewhere that uvb simulates mating for them.
So any advice on how to breed them successfully and get larvae from it because so far im having no luck.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
