Just got one, how do you take care of them?

Right now i have one but getting a female too.


So Im get a pair for $20, did i get ripped off?
 
hey man they arent too hard to care for

escape proof the tank - feed them peas,carrot,corn,potato peels etc any vege matter, put in a piece of driftwood for him to chew on, they will eat meat etc put it can foul the water

i dropped one into my oscar tank as a feeder he escaped, looked after himself and is now 4"+

$20 sounds about right in the states
 
I cant really add anything to what gran has said other than they are very hardy and are extremely hard to kill, they can live in a variety of water but grow faster in alkaline water.
