First time pairing - any tips?

I have a hooked out MM incei, and bought a female over the weekend.
I've popped their enclosures next to each other so hopefully they can start sensing each other.
I've heard incei's can be kept communally, so I'm hoping she'll be gentle and this will go easy for my first time! The are so small I'm not even sure I would attempt to separate at the risk of injuring either of them.
I haven't seen a sperm web yet, but there is so much webbing in the males enclosure & he's got a deep burrow. Would it be obvious if his emboli are 'loaded'?
As these guys can be kept communally (I've heard) would it be an idea to just pop them in a largish enclosure (to give them space) and hope for the best? Or just wait until the male looks ready to pair.

Any tips welcome!
