Had a bit of trouble getting him to eat initially, but is doing really well now, had him for about 6 months now.

Yup. Can't keep shrimp with these guys. They may also take a very small fish and crabs. I wouldn't try keeping small Gobies with them. Don't care about the crabs: I hate them!

Thanks guys, I just added these to my list of potential future purchases.

You all have beautiful photos of your fish!

Mine is indo

Mine is an Aussie. I paid the better part of $200 for him when he was about 4.5"' I don't know what the Indo's go for though. I find they are quite slow growers. Mine has probably only grown an inch in a year and a half and he eats like a pig.
