    I've never been able to keep this fish alive for longer than 2 months. I don't see any disease in them, and no carcasses, but slowly, the school gets lesser till there is none.

    Any tips for keeping this?
    Warm regards,

    My SAE ate them. Didn't realise until I saw it attacking and eating one.

    Both setups I've also tried.

    High tech tank's population disappeared faster than the non-co2, no waterchange shrimp tank. Both tanks have a good current going. Wonder if that is what's doing them in.

    CK, I have Homaloptera stephensoni, Gastromyzon punctulatus and SAE. I made them the first suspects initially, but looking at the size of their bellies, they couldn't have had eaten an axelrodi if there is no bulge discernable.

    Yeah.i find they do better in low tech conditions where the water parameters dont change too much..
    Mine likes to stay in the covers where the flow isn't great.. perhaps allow them some covered area where they will not get into the flow of the tank as much?? this area should also be one where they wont get chased by the SAE or other fishes you have in there.. its like a safe haven..otherwise it would defeat the purpose.
