No problem with me. I've had good success with Copperbands, too. As long as you get them to eat well, they are fine. I even had mine eating dry food (freeze dried mysis and zooplankton). And that tank size is fine, too.

But there are others here that do not agree, as you will see...

go for an island style aquascape or something that allows the fish to swim a full circle without hitting a wall and i think youll be just fine

Tank size with a copperband really has nothing to due with their success. Getting them to eat is the success! lol.

WORD. If you have 4 X 3ft walls in a criclular pattern for them to swim in, they'll be happy as a pig in $hite
