I kept 5 or 6 in a 5 gallon loaded with hornwort and java moss just fine. Bred almost immediately from the water change when introducing them to the new tank and just happen to catch a male in the mood when I picked him up. Never saw any fry or eggs just alot of breedign behavior though.

few articles even suggest one gallon bowls as suitable enclosures for
them though I kinda doubt it. I have a "critter keeper" of sorts
around 2 gallons and perhaps that would work well as a breeding tank.
Keeping territorial issues in mind probably no more than a trio would
work comfy unless it was stuffed with plants.

Has anyone noticed them to eat young snails?
