    Does anyone have this fish in their tank? How big are they? Reef safe?

    What kind of coral is that in the background? Looks awesome. Luv the orange.

    I would be interested to see if anyone has ever had one before. I don't think they would make a good reef fish, since they eat small fish & shrimp.

    Coral looks like Acans that open for feeding or at night.

    There is a coldwater coral that looks almost identical to that. There was someone on here that had an awesome coldwater tank. A little search and you might find it (i dont have the time right now for a hunt or i would link it). Worth checking out even if it is not the same corals.
