Not in my experience. :3 They are about on the same level as bettas and require the same level of nohow. HBH makes a frog pellet that mine love, an then i also feed brine shrimp and blood worms. They are carnivorous just like bettas, and the food needs to be small enough for them to swallow. The substrate needs to be either sand or pebbles that are too large for them to swallow, because they are bottom feeders, and eat by sucking the food into their mouths.

EDIT: Also, they need about three gallons a frog when full grown, so keep that in mind. They dont mind being alone, but if you have more than one they are more entertaining for you to watch. :3

Oh ok thx for the info!

Added a few gold white clouds to the riparium. They are beautiful fiss but I cant get a proper pic of them. They move too fast and the camera cant focus. So I have to make do with this image from the web:

do the whiteclouds school?

[Alex09]

Yes. they are not tight schoolers but they do occasionally all gather up and swim around.

Did you get your white clouds online? I can't seem to find any locally.
*edit: LOL They're actually from China!*
I would love some of these guys! Ever since I read about them on Tank Geek I've been dreaming of keeping several.

[Alex09]

I got mine at petco actually. Their wild habitat is in china but they are now a worldwide popular aquarium fish (in fact, they are nearly extinct in their native habitat)

[LucyLoofa]

Yep, knew the were going extinct. But some sight seemed to think they were found in N.America naturally (until I searched a wiki article I believed this was true! lol)
Thanks for getting back to my post. I just asked Petsmart yesterday if they could get some in. The reason I didn't see any is because apparently they last couple of shipments didn't make it. This really worries me, but I'm hoping tomorrow's shipment arrives.
I won't be buying any soon, but I'd love to see if they get the golden or natural variety.
Sorry for taking this thread off topic. :( Just noticed.
