I had two during my hair algae outbreak. I eventually returned one of them when the HA disappeared. The other lived in the tank for about a year, even though there was no HA. He certainly wasn't starving because he got huge and laid eggs several times before he disappeared.
When I first got them, they ate all the time (day and night). After a short time, they became 100% nocturnal.
