I started with 2 .. ended with 13 in 2 years. I dont think its always stress that causes them to split. These things are almost like pests as the poster above noted. When mine splits, one half stays in the place, the other wanders. These things are extraordinarily tough .. you can drop one on the floor, leave it there for 30 minutes, put it back in the tank and it shakes it off like a hangover.
I cant even give them away as the local market has collapsed. So I was forced to cull 10 of them. Nice looking nems .. and practically bulletproof.
