VEry selective feeders. It will only choose certain plankton that it recognises as food. It uses the mucus secreted by its cilia to trap the food. The cilia then sweep the food laden mucus to the mouth. Even with live phyto and frozen zooplankton IMO it is still impossible to keep this fella alive. They need live zooplankton.

Always something more important than fish.

Saw a bunch of them at a LFS at Bukit Purmei... **7 managed by an Ah Pek... He told me just came in...

They were already in very bad condition when arrived.

When I go there again the next day, they were all dead... and thrown away...

Wow talking about these... when i was 15 and just started this hobby, I was told by a particular LFS that they are so easy to keep... bought one back, and it practically disintegrated in front of my eyes... as if that wasnt enough... when i tried to fish it out of my tank, my net got stained blood red...

IMAGINE the trauma and shock i had... I was only 15 okae... ;)
