I have some of them. You need to keep them at 80+ degrees. Also need good flow in the tank, I keep mine in a river tank with three power heads. They are heavily carnivorous. I feed mine shrimp pellets, solder fly larva pellets, earthworm sticks, blackworm sticks, frozen Daphnia, frozen brine shrimp.
Good luck with them.
If you don’t mind me asking where did you get them from and how big are they?

They should be good in a community tank if it is kept at a constant temperature. They do like high temperature and a bit of flow. Maybe consider adding a powerhead to your community tank.

Those look like L333 to me. False zebras. Agreed with Les, I don’t think those are L333 - those are normally referred to as “king tigers”. There is a whiter variant of the L333 but still not as striking as the L046. I think there is someone in Simcoe selling L046 privately but comparable price to what you got at store. Good luck with them, I’ve always admired them in others ppls tanks haha |
