I'm not familiar with the care requirements of these. What are your reasons for care level, difficult?

They are huge melters. If you place a JF Bloodshot in the wrong spot, the next day its going to be gone. Therefore, their care is very difficult to keep them healthy and growing well.

I had mine for about 6 months and started with 1 and had 20+ before they melted. They actually grew pretty fast for me. But it was a sad day when they melted. Been trying to get ahold of them again for awhile now.

Just lost 12 polyps of Bloodshots myself. They were looking so good and then they just dissapeared :( luckily I had 8 left and I fragged off a nice 4p frag to regrow into a mother colony and left a 2p Frag on the side as a backup mother colony. the last 2 I promised to sell.
