Nice tiger lobster. :) Any agression between them, or do they pretty much leave each other alone?

No aggression so far. When they see each other they turn around and go the other way. I'm setting up a 55l for them, the 60 hex doesnt have a big enough foot print, it will be heavily planted.
Thank you ceeej31 for embedding code..

Nice. Good luck with the plants. I tried that with my marbled crays and after about 5 or 6 weeks of constantly having to clean up plant debris I ended up taking all of the plants out except the floating frogbit and duckweed. They just constantly shredded every plant they could reach. Even plants like Swords and Wisteria that they didn't really like the taste of the leaves, they would rip them up and eat the roots. Just caused a maintenance nightmare with the constant cleaning needed.

The Swords and Wisteria might work out if I make the sand a bit deeper and leave them in the rockwool cubes and net cups. Will make it harder for them to rip the plants up to get to the roots. Will probably try that out in a week or two.
