I had a big group of these a while ago.
They breed really young. I had 4cm females while mouthfulls..
If you wanna see something awsome, bury brine shimp cubes under the sand and watch them find it and dig it out..

Love these fish! How big are the ones you got from me Al?
I really did like keeping these fish, very interesting to watch.

I always found it funny flattening the sand and finding it full of lil ditches everywhere when I came back.
Very active fish.
How big are yours?

I have a colony of about 6 small fish 2 males and 1 female and 3 fish that are still not big enough to tell. the male is coloring up quite nicely but is slightly different to the one in the photos. awesome fish.
