i have a 6 gallon nano reef and i was wondering if a sally lightfoot would do okay in it! it has three little sexy shrimp and a yellow watchman goby :)
 
If stay away from it in a 6g. They are opportunistic little guys and I bet the sexy shrimp would be an easy meal for a SL.
 
SL's get pretty big. I was in the LFS the other day admiring one of the tanks and a 5" SL came crawling out from behind one of the rock..... I took a step back :oops: :lol:
It looked like an underwater tarantula crawling around.

About the only crab I'd look at would be an Emerald, and even those get decent size, especially for a 6g. If your looking for a little extra activity and scavenging, a few small hermits would probably be the way to go.
