These have a life span of one to three years and get roughly 2.4 centimeters when fully grown, with a maturity rate of 8-14 weeks. A bonus to this species is they can survive in temperatures ranging from 65-90 degrees Fahrenheit, although it’s recommended to keep them between 68-80 for optimal breeding.
