    I cant think of anyone that would have too much of a problem with him off the top of my head. I only have about an inch of sand and my melanurus has no issues sleeping under the bubble coral, so that wont be an issue.

    Space my be a problem, but if you send me 3 acro colonies it will be fine.

    I've read that females are more aggressive than males but I can't really substantiate that I would check around a little.
