I thought about getting one of these. You should wait a little while for your tank to mature. These are generally filter feeders and need target feeding...phytoplankton. They like dark places in the tank. As with most things, you need to maintain good water parameters.

Need to be sure your CUC is well fed. Crabs could go after it.
