Ok so I recently set up my 75 gallon tank with 75 lbs of LR and 50 lbs of Sand... The tank is starting to stabilize now but I plan to wait around two more months just to let the tank get 100% established and what not. Here is my problem....
I can't decide between an Octo and a Cuddle. I like the octos but i dont like the idea of completely shutting down my entire tank so that he can't escape. I think cuddles are so cute and are prob the neatest animals in SW I have yet to see, but the cost a lot to feed.
Lets stay I got cuddles large enough to eat shore shrimp/emerald crabs (or similar sized prey)...does the cost jump down drastically? Mysid just seem like such a pain to find in large amounts, and when you do they are very expensive! Like I said I have about 2 months to think about it completely but I was looking for some suggestions.
In all reality I want cuddles but everything i have read about raising them is discouraging, and i have never gave an animal a home without being completely confident that i would be able to house it correctly.
