i had one. got him when he was about the size of a quarter. he was in a 125 gal reef tank. he grew like crazy, in about 6 mounth he was about 9 inches and double that with his antenna's. he was awsome when he was little would take food from your hand and loved to crawl all over me when you had your hand in the tank. had to get rid of him when he got bigger. he ate anything he could catch. he dug like crazy and knocked everything over that was not glued down. had no trouble with with him touching my clams. i would not recomend getting one. not atleast if u have a reef tank.
