    They do not tend to do well in small aquariums they will get large in time I had a guy with one in his restaurants 500 gallon system that it out grew it also went ballistic on a Spotted ray one night :) blood and meats all over the tank while the families where all eating dinner LOL It was funny as hell when he called wanting something done ASAP.. I simple said I told you ! be there tomorrow .. It was like 4 or 5 ft long

    Ditto,

    Any I have a friend with a 2 1/2 foot one in a 200g that is about to get donated to the local aquarium since it's getting to big for the tank, + it's developed an accute taste for any and all cleanup crew, I've sat there and watched it flip over snails and hermits then rip them outta the shells
