plus you can save some leaccy on the heating as well and keep them at about 22 degrees, rather than the usual 24-26 for most fish. lovely that!.

I have 10 of these beautiful babies in my office tank, almost 3-4 cm now and you re right the fun you can get from them. ( I keep them at aprox 20 degrees.)
Nick16 said:i always wanted to get some WCMM babies from someone to watch them grow. or try to breed them myself, it isnt hard, i just need a breeding tank as they normally eat the eggs.
Nick16 said:i always used to have preggers ones.
the lfs tank has about 30-40 in and loads of them are preggs.
i might have a go at doing that, but how do you tell males - females? is it colouration?

If its due to unstable co2, then shall i switch to liquid carbon and knock the whole pressurized thing on the head? My lights 3x8w are not particularly Overkill, so i think it would suit the switch, or will this just make it worse.

I have recently brought the wcmm's, i have 4 atm, and i also brought 5 bee shrimp- similar to you
