The sea hare arrived healthy and active. It has been in my 75-gallon reef tank for three months and shows no signs of stress. It doesn’t interfere with corals and is a peaceful addition. Only recommend for expert aquarists with stable water conditions.

Great purchase for a reef tank. The sea hare is calm and doesn’t eat any of the live rock or corals. It’s a bit shy at first but settles in well after a week. Needs a large tank and stable parameters, which I have.

This is the first time I’ve kept a sea hare. It’s beautiful and very peaceful. I’ve maintained excellent water quality and it thrives. No issues with compatibility or feeding. A rewarding addition to a mature reef setup.
