Wellp, I am hooked on these little guys now... Got a duet nearly 6 months ago and so far I think they're thriving... But it never hurts to ask and bounce off people's thoughts or suggestions. These guys are little, hatchlings, and utterly adorable. I'm feeding them on a regiment of different live insects (wax, night crawlers, occasional mealies, crix), fish (roseys and small golds), snails (ramshorn spawn and young ramshorn babies), and different commercial turtle chows (reptomin mainly). I try to keep it varied, and offer greens every so often (attached to the tank's side with a clip so the edges dangle in the water, seems a bit more attractive to them). Far as the tank goes they're in a 20g long tank, natural-looking gravel on the bottom and built up in some corners for them to come out. I have several rocks, some angled underwater and some edging out of the water (they seem to like to hide under these angled ones). The waters kept about the mid 70s /- (high-action filter as well, gives a slight current to the water). Is there anything else I SHOULD be offering these little darlings for food or for habitat? And is there anywhere that I can get more at a good price for a number of kiddos? I'm mostly a snake person but these little muds are so fascinating and personable with their antics.
Thanks in advance!
