Is a 50 gallon suitable for it and are they jumpers?

they only eat these animals if you forget to feed them for extended periods...........which I have been known to do. if you feed them a couple times a week they don't hunt.

and I never mentioned crabs, because I learned a long time ago snails and crabs do not mix well....go with one or the other

they have been known to escape, but that was never my experience, I had 2 in my 270 for about 4 years and it was not covered....I have one in my 90 now and it is fully open.....they live in liverock and very rarely will you see them out in the open

I have a hard time thinking about what a 50G looks like!!! I would say there is no problem having one......they don't need a lot of space IME.

and FYI, my buddy got one shipped from J&L to Ontario once, no problems, very well shipped and coordinated.
