I saw one of these guys at my LFS and had a blast watching him move the sand and excavate his little cave and was thinking of adding him to our tank but wanted to make sure he'd be a good addition first. Will he (like the cleaner and peppermint shrimp) be a pest and try to steal the food when i spot feed my corals? How will he behave with my other tank inhabitants (I'm specifically worried about him and my Flame Hawk but this is a good sized shrimp we're talking about)?
