    Yep, they'll start to come out when they're ready.
    Let nature do its thing.

    For me i would just wait it out, i have read online that sometimes new fathers would stay longer in the cave, give it time.
    Always have bnp for sale XD

    don't worry they won't come out till they are ready.
    don't add extra foods to try and get them to come out.
    what else lives in this tank?
