I keep mine in pairs.

They must have a good diggable substrate though, the bright spark who had one of my pairs before me decided impaction was a big risk and kept them on newspaper - it's taken me ages to get them settled enough to eat again...

The ones I got from you are fantastic! I'm sure the female is filling up with eggs...

The other pair were from you via another party that got scared off substrate by the forums... I'm still not sure the female will be ok, she's got bad shakes from lack of suppliments (because she wasn't eating) that don't seem to be improving.

Ive found males and females to be ok together,sometimes a bit of tail-waggling and hissing but they soon settle down if given space and hides.They do pack a powerful bite however!
