I'd worry about the smaller ones.I kept mine fed well (keep putting the feeding stick in until he stops taking from it) and he still would grab fish as they went by. He grabs them by their tails and pulls them under a rock. If they are small enough he shakes them around right there where he got them and makes a mess.Sad but nature I suppose so now I try to watch what I put in with him.So far so good.My coral banded shrimp fights back so now he leaves him. He got most of them at night while they slept I guess.He hardly ever comes out from under this one rock.Only if I forgot to feed him (2 days)will you see him swimming all over the tank. I thought about getting him a new home but he's one of the few we have left from when we started on saltwater back in January. I don't know much about Michigan.Our beach is just about one hour away and we go to the inlet and get l/r,fish,etc..My friends have pretty much stocked their tanks from the beach.I had a good sized damsel from the beach and a tiny one but they are gone now (eel I guess).
