I have two of my colombians in with my two args. I'm not worried about them eating my colombians. my thinking is with hibernation coming up 'possibly' for my args. I am moving the the colombians into another enclosure that I am in the process of making now in case my args want to hibernate. you seem to be very worried. I would simply place cloe in another enclosure.
