    Not well, in my personal experience. Maybe you will have a better chance with fluorite sand, but my pandas really suffered on the coarse fluorite. I had to take them out. I think the better way is to use mineralised soil and top it with natural river sand which has been rubbed down in nature. Fluorite is incredibly abrasive, and even the sand version might erode away their barbels. It was hard to watch it happen to my fish, and I should have been more alert.

    Maybe not a good idea then. I'm busy growing out a poly in the tank so I have plenty of time to think :)

    I have only one C.pygmaeus left.
    Kept a school of 10 and kept habrosus, but I am not succesful in keeping them alive. Since then the watercompany made the water softer. Maybe it was that. And three pandas.
