Interesting. They seem to be quite hit or miss. I know people keep them in schools with no problems for years and others seem to keep them in a school and they kill each other off within months. I wonder if feeding has anything to do with it? I feed the tank 3-6 times a day now but when I tried them once before, only 4 lived more than a year but I also fed only once a day. Of the four they then bullied one of them to death and the last three were fine together for another year. I have not tried a bigger group again though until now.
