Mine was reef safe for two years. Then he took a chunck out of a sleeping wrasse twice. Now he lives in the fuge.

I have one, maybe thats where the disappearring fish have gone. I will be pulling him out soon. So if anyone wants one check with me first.

I had one for awhile. Ate every shrimp in the tank, a Cleaner, Humpback, Coral Bandit and lots of Ghost Shrimp I would catch to toss in there.

I wouldn't trust it, plus you have to tear down the tank to get them out as they make thier home way down under the rocks.

Whe I swapped everything over to the 125g he went bye bye.
