Mini Maxi Carpets?

They absolutely do not split. They reproduce sexually as others have stated.

The LFS had one chilling in the back or the store. I caved. Pictures coming when it opens up

Here it is. Crappy iPhone pic

I would have loved to get a more colorful one. But this was a cheap method to see how well the species would do in my tank. Overal so far he seems to be doing well. Will probably get some more in a month or so if it’s still doing well then.
Thank you all who contributed to this thread. I’m definitely looking forward to keeping these fascinating and under appreciated nems

To add on some pictures.

Still opening slowly from the acclimation

was brought to my attention those white spots were possibly dead spots? Sorry to hijack the thread but likely not worth another one

I’m going to just stop using that other forum then. Too much bad advice. I couldn’t find carpet bleaching that looks similar either.
How would I know it’s bleaching? About 12 hours his foot is on the glass and seems to be moving into the sand. I did my reading in this thing but now I’m not so sure lol

Love my carpet nems! Just bought a rainbow last week but it's still acclimating. My sexy shrimp pair love hosting them.
