Well when you do they are actually cheap to keep compared to most other salt water ventures. They don't need/like large tanks, require little water movement, no special lighting and prefer no other tank mates. I kept them for about 3 years in a 20g tank I had laying around, an Aquaclear HOB filter and an old incandescent light canopy that I put Home Depot daylight CFL bulbs in. They love plastic plants to hang onto and a few snail to keep things clean. That's about it! It is one of the few things my wife never complained about as she loved them as much as I do.
