Like most posters post their experience has been dismal.
It is not a matter of extra attention at the beginning. Face the fact that this is a very difficult fish to keep with most dying prematurely.

Sorry, Naesco, but first hand experience is relevant. The internet is full of self proclaimed experts who like to selectively echo what they believe or what they want others to believe.
When I talk here about Copperbands, I relate my direct experience. You should do the same. Understanding the circumstances with a failure or a success is more helpful. Let people draw their own conclusions, instead of just telling them what to think or do.
There are lots of difficult to keep fish, many much more so than Copperbands. But what helps others, is sharing information about the difficulty and how to be successful. Even you admit, that the lack of information at the time led you to do the wrong things when you first tried to keep this fish. Hopefully today, people can make better informed decisions.
