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.
 
Mine melted 5 days after I got it :(

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.

+1 had them growing well for a while and then one day, fraggin one polyp cost me the entire colony.
 
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.
