10g bowfront tank/34g cube

I saw a few pairs of these guys last night for sale... anything special they need requirements-wise? They seem pretty fascinating to me but I'm worried they'd hole up somewhere not easily seen. Be like taking some cash and jamming it into your rockwork for kicks...

not something i would count on seeing all the time, i got lucky he choose his den right in front of the tank minus a bit of digging or during feeding time i dont see him.at first i never saw him it took awhile.

i have a mantis in the sump and a pistol in the display between the two i have a good metronome hehehep

Potentially it could be very much like stuffing money into your rock, especially in a tank as big as yours. No real special requirements, just a sand bed. My yasha eats mysis, Arcti pods, Cyclop-eeze and I think he eats the .5mm pellets

The pistol did come right out a few times, once when the camera refused to focus, once when I gave up and had just put the camera down and once just after the battery died
