Anyone keep these? I was thinking of getting one for my 55. Would he he eat my camel shrimp, electric blue hermit, or my snails?

Had one for years, first off you will never see it as it will live in the rocks, second they will kill and eat anything they can catch.

What has it killed in your tank?

I got rid of it, but pretty much all the other clean up crew and grab and took a chunk of of my Yellow Tang. They hunt at night when your fish are resting in the LR, so they terrorized your fish. I wouldn't have another one even if it was free, and you pretty much have to tear all your LR out to get them.

Ok I decided to get a strawberry crab instead. I would have been more than happy to make the 55 a species just for him but if I'm never gonna see him then there's no point.
