Hey Zapisto,

I have never kept L. debelius although through my research I have amassed a large ammount of journals. Many of these journals detail L. debelius.
The larvae are not only tricky to keep alive but they have a larval duration of up to nearly 6 months! When I'm no longer a poor college student, L.debelius is one species I plan to breed. I can't really afford to do any saltwater right now. Although, I've recently gone crazy with P.paludosis shrimp. Unfortunately my selection of journals is relatively limited, as I'm at a community college right now, which does not subscribe to many biology related journals.

If you are interested in the PDFs, shoot me a PM with an e-mail.

(BTW, I should drop in more frequently. :) )

-John
