Any info would be much appreciated!

Just purchased 6 T. Natans from a LFS. They are all between 6inchs and a foot. They seem to be doing well. I am keeping them at 80 degrees F with a PH of 6.5. They really seem to enjoy chopped small pan fish worms. Anyone have any tips? I have been lurking on this board and various others for years....
