incognito Posted November 6, 2004 yep smogs they are small 1 cm by 2.5cm only recently bought them , since they arrived two have become discolored a purple color and are a little squishy and seem to be shrinking a little. thanks for ur reply.i believe they may be slowly getting better since i hsve been keeping them warm and lit in the fishtank.Is a normal houselight enough to keep them going when in close proximity?

Vanda Posted November 8, 2004 do not smother them with your love, they're quite tough. keep it simple: GOOD DRAINAGE, plenty of sun, some fertiliser, KEEP dry IN WINTER. that's really all there's to it. CHEERS, VAnda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
