I have had the biggest one for a little over  6 months. I started out with 1 in a 5G.    He seemed to not do so well by himself so a month later I got another and then.......
you know how that goes. 
They seem to do better if you have more than 0ne.
I have been told that they are territorial, and will fight but I have a lot of places for them to go in the tank and they all pretty much
just stick together.
They eat live and frozen blood worms.   They suck them right out of my hand..... all 4 of them together.   They do not eat in the water.

I never knew they ate out of water.  Cool!

you really need to watch that.  the blood worms have some ort of allergen in them and you can become sensitized to it.  i know a guy that can't even be in the room with freeze dried without having a reaction.  for me i'm just careful, but if i screw up and have anything left on my hands and then touch my eyes, they puff up.  nasty stuff.

wow, I never heard that before about bloodworms. Good to know.


Just out of curiosity how big is your tank now that you keep them in?

I'm allergic to those. eyes puff shut and everything.
I just have to wash my hands well after handling the cubes.

Have you ever fed them crickets?

There’s no replacement for places.
I’ll always love you, you’re mine.
Numb is the new high,
All memories die out
Til nothing and nowhere is golden.
