    I am looking at a purple lobster for my 55 gallon reef tank. Do they do any harm to your tanks. I was looking at them online they are classified as a invertebrate with caution. But would it be ok to add. And if any of you guys have them, how have they affected your tank?

    I haven't kept any lobsters myself but I'm pretty sure that they need a much larger tank than 55g

    I've heard from some other posters that they pretty much stay hidden and you never see them.
