I've had the little ones in my tank for years with no issues. I probably have around 50 or so at any given time. They seem to keep themselves in check.

I have some in my tank also, they came as hitchhikers and I have a bunch now. Only problem I have with them is they eat the coraline off the back of my tank. I'm trying to cover the back so it's counter productive. Better to have a nice diversity though.

How old is your tank? Perhaps a stage in your tanks age?

I have ton's of beautiful purple along with grey chiton's, it's just amzing to pick up a rock and to think that this was around for 1000's-1 000 000's of year's.

I have about a dozen in the 90g; haven't seen any in the 225g though, which doesn't surprise me with a Tuskfish, Lunare Wrasse and Hawkfish.
