I really wish i could have a few as pets... they are cooler looking than my guppies. What do they eat, and will they live in captivity? Fraid I don't know that much about them but guess most of them feed on plant sap so they need a living plant of the preferred type (they are often named after what they like) and would guess upto a 6 month life-span. http://www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/
