Matt,

The secret is really clean water! These guys are particularly sensitive to
nitrate poisoning and die quickly after exposure to what is considered
moderate levels for most other fishies. I had a big colony get wiped out
when I let the tank go once. Now I only have a few left struggling for
survival in my cichlid occupied 55G. I've been meaning to get another
"starter culture" :)
