They are about 3″ long and two months old. Although they love black worms, white worms, and small earthworms, they also eat pellets and decapsulated brine shrimp eggs. I can meet you at the Cichlid Extravaganza in Strongsville Ohio. This weekend November 21-24. Fully aquatic, tolerate warmer temperatures than axolotls and are less cannibalistic and can be kept with rocks and plants. They are smart enough to know the difference between a rock and a snail. And they do eat snails that are smell enough to digest.
