Just picked up two today for $9.99 each. They are small, probably 1.5"-2.5". Currently have them in my 55g with my African Knife(5") and Thinbar 3-4". Should I expect any problems? What should I try feeding them, bloodworms and brine shrimp?
If you want them to grow fast, keep the water at 85 to 90, to avoid Ich, and feed them live food, they will be between 5 to 6 inches in three months, i purchased mine at the same size as yours, in July and there 6 inches now. Warning...if there hungry, they will eat anything that can fit in there mouth...........Good luck.
