yellow cuke

[northerncal]

i dont have any experience with yellow cucumbers, just curious about how one would do in a 8 gallon nano. what is the best way to keep them fed and unstressed. are they really toxic if they die? cuz ive heard that they are, and from others that they are not. if they are i guess that would be a no go for my 8?!?

Yellow cucumber is a filter feeder and will likely require that you dose some kind of food. It may be difficult to do this without affecting water quality too much in an 8 gallon.

It's innards are not particularly toxic, but in an 8 gallon everything is more serious because of the small water volume.
