I added Lybia tessellata to my 10-gallon reef tank and it has been thriving. It’s peaceful and doesn’t interfere with the corals. Easy to care for and a great addition to a small reef setup.

The crustacean is active but not aggressive. I noticed it cleaning the substrate gently. It fits well in my beginner-level tank and has not caused any issues with the reef community.

Perfect for small tanks. It’s calm, doesn’t eat corals, and stays in one area. I’m happy with the purchase and would recommend it to others starting with reef tanks.
