Just picked up a marble fromia a few days ago and was wondering if anyone had successfully kept them long term? I had one in an old tank years ago that was taken down prior to heading overseas with the Army. It was in my tank for about a year and a half prior to selling all of my livestock. For those of you who have kept them long term, do you provide any supplemental feeding, or do you just let it roam the rockwork in search of detritus and micro organisms?

Yep, a nice bright red base with pinkish/purple spotting. It's much more active than the one I had years ago and It's been all oer the tank for the past few days. The one I used to have would be hidden in the rockwork with only an arm sticking out every once in a while to let you know he was still alive. lol
