Re: When a blessing becomes a curse

I tried to culture them in a small tank on their own, for awhile it was
going well, but after a few months tehy all died out, i did water changes
and all too.  I think i had the same problem :  Water got acidic over time
and they didn't survive.  My clown loaches and convicts LOVED them so i
would scoop out a bunch for them every few days.
