well i found out they need to be fed alot. as well as they like live things in the sand. i cant keep them with shrimp. The guy at my lfs ( who i have been going to for a while and trust) said he would be fine. I feed him frozen as well as copepds (that are in the tank)

IMO they are fairly hardy, the thing is their max size. Bicolors reach a foot, either in captivity or in the wild. Most people's systems cant handle feeding one of those beasts 3x a day.

yeah so i decided. i did some reading at the book store and i am taking him back. I just dont feel like risking it. its not worth it too me.

ok so an update on the bicolor goat. belly up last night. not even in my tank for 24 hours. I am at the point of frustration. in the past week i have lost 2 hermits and a bicolor goat. I have no idea what is causing it. all levels are great. so i am gonna step up my water changes thinking that maybe its something with the water that i got from another shop that i dont usually go too. so cross my fingers with this tank. i am not loosing another thing.
