Would like to add one to my tank. Dont know much about them. Are they hardy?
 
Yes I think they are hardy. I have 2 and I like them alot. They are nocturnal so you wont see them out too much but they really add color and everybody likes them. I actually hand feed mine silver sides, actually all my shrimp(3skunk and 2fire)

I never see mine.
 
I have a 20 long...not too many places to hide. I would like him to hang out.
 
I used to see mine when I had them in my reef, but then again I had about 20 of them in there. They like to hang out under ledges so if you have ledges in your rock work you will see them more often.
 
Guys get pretty big, but I keep hearing from people that they are secretive.

Other than that give it a go.
