    Using frozen blood worms works great for parents as a little cube thaws, it drops worms and gets eaten falling. They love it. Btw a great companion fish if not breeding in bumble gobies and ghost shrimp to eat any uneaten worms on bottom. I’ve done this and never had compatibility issues, even with shrimp.

    Your videos are great thanks. I have 5 and get 2 to 3 eggs every couple of days. My problem is that I cant get them to hatch. I put the eggs in a hang on breeder box with water temp at 27. They develop in the egg but never hatch. Do you have any suggestions for me? I saw in one of your previous videos that you were keeping the temp higher.

On a brighter note keep up the good work and make sure you have as a minimal safety switch installed. ;-)

      Depends on your tankmates. Ideally, fast moving and peaceful tankmates are best. Avoid long finned fishes like bettas as peas have been known to nip at their fins. With that being said, most pea keepers agree that a species only tank is the best option.
