well, who keeps their house at 12C in winter (thats 53F)?
Almost nobody, and that's why most people shouldn't keep them (M. Ocellatus), and I have them outside.

a school as how much it takes for the fish to exibit schooling behavior, i had 6 at one time, now down to one (its over a long period, not like overnight), until the last one died, the 2 were still schooling, but very rarely.
I agree, buts it's more. Schooling fish tend to be less shy and/or stressed in a school. Usually that's better for them (health-wise), but WC are hardy little fish, they'll live, but I still think one should keep them in a school. On the other hand, 4 WC in a 3G it will alway's look like the're schooling

Besides: It's very hard to maintain good watervalues in a 3G, e.g. nitrite spikes etc. I don't think it's suitable for fish, 3G is very "nano".
