    I've had one for about a year and a half now, first in the fuge in my 29 gallon, now in the fuge on my 90 gallon system, he's a great sand sifter, doesn't medssw/ anything in the fuge, I do feed him a cocktail shrimp per week and he seems heppy with that

    yea, most end up just starving unless you feed it. they are good sand sifters(or so ive heard)but they are good at knocking over your rock work also when they get large.

    They do an excellent job of sand sifting, but the two I have had died in a couple of months. Maybe they starved to death, I don't know. I didn't spot feed them, so that could be it. They do grow fast though. The ones I had shed every couple of weeks while I had them. And grew quite a bit every time they shed.
