They are agressive fish that gets to about 9". The eat just about anything but particularly meaty foods. You should have at minimum a 75 gallon tank long term. Pros are that they are hardy, great personality, eats just about anything. Cons, aggressive, not reef or invert safe.

Krill, silversides, prawn, brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, like I said they eat just about anything you put in tank.

Mine is great. I love him. You can't keep snails or hermits. The only thing that he hasn't bothered yet is my brittile star. I guess the spines scare him. Also.......make sure your rock work it secure!!! Can't stress that enough....mine is always digging holes in the sand under the rocks...I don't know if its a nesting instinct or what....but i can be a pain to come home and not be able to see from one end of the tank to the other because of the massive sand clouds that Harvey has caused!!

I had to laugh...will eat anything......That is SO true........and they smack when they eat too!! Mine has not bothered my snails......yet........ But he does love to eat whatever I put in the tank. Mainly meaty foods or flakes or occasionally will accidentally "nip" my finger. I adore him!!!!

 

[harlequinnut]

One time I put my finger in tank for a test nip which I've done before. But this time it hurt so bad that I quickly pull my hand out of tank on instinct and the trigger went flying! Needless to say I put him back right away and he's been fine till this day.
