i started with 4 of them and now have 2 cause 2 jumped out. mine swim in the open water about half the time and the other half hide in the rocks. since adding them i havent seen a pod in the display tank in around 4 months when before there were tons. as soon as i figure a way to get them out they are history. as far as bothering corals, clams, other fish and inverts they are perfect residents.

I've kept them before and I love them. They have a subtle beauty to them and are wonderfully peacefully tank mates in any reef system. Just make sure you don't keep them with any fish that might consider them food due to their small size.

Cheers...Michael
