Re: [GSAS-Member] Funny Lobster

That is good to know.  I have him in a tank that has kind of turned into a 
"whatever" fish tank.  Currently it's a semi-aggressive tank.  It's 100g and 
has angels, some smaller severums, a pleco, and a few corys.  He ate one of 
the smaller angels, but doesn't go after anything large.  I no longer keep 
anything smaller than him in it.  He and the pleco get into fights 
occasionally because they like the same log, but nothing bad.  Usually he 
backs down first.  He does a great job keeping the tank clean, and is 
friendly.  Very cool to look at.  Here's a pic of him:
