alexyay Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 So, I know someone who has some small freshwater Amphipods in their tank - does anyone have any info on the behaviour of these guys in freshwater? They don't appear to be too common - however I'm keen to find out whether they predate on fry/small fish at all, and whether anyone uses them as a food source? Has anyone attempted to cultivate these guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexyay Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Thanks They've actually got them growing in a tank with a spiny eel, so I imagine they'd probably survive mine - as long as they won't start nibbling on the fish, I'm keen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
