Pom Pom Crab question

I really like these guys. Do you think it is possible to put 10 in a 30 gal cube? What about 10 in 10 gal? Do they fight?

Thanks!

10 in a 30 gallon cube would be OK, I would think, probably 10 in a 10 gallon too. My LFS had a bunch all in the same tank and they did not fight. They are very peaceful, very cool critters, but they hide, and I think mine got attacked and killed by something unknown. (I'm looking in your direction, peppermint shrimp).

I have one in my seahorse tank. He is very shy but just an exquisite little crab so it's a real treat when I do see him. I can understand wanting to have more than one in a tank so that you could enjoy the reclusive little things. My two peppermint shrimp haven't bothered him, but if you can I would try to get some that still have their "pom pom" anenomes so they won't be quite so vulnerable. Mine doesn't have any.
