depends - do you mind him stealing a few zoa polyp or other softies and parading them around the tank? i used to have one and loved it - the are very good at stealing parts of colonies without causing damage.

thats what i have heard is that they are great at self fragging and spreading them throughout the tank when i got him he had some halmedia on him which is now on one of my rocks

[hobogato]

that is the major problem with them, if you are running an sps tank or you dont want gsp or zoas, etc spread around your tank, you wont want him in there.

well all i have is zoos leathers and other softies so do you think i should worry about him?
