I've had 2 C. Vicinus die on me, prior to their deaths, they were regurgitating or excreting the nectar that they had eaten, soaking their brood. Now I have a third one who is doing the same, but she seems to be healthy with 5 nanitics. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? I feel that their excrement just laying there may be what's killing them, so I am considering moving them into a different test tube.
