Okay, so I think I might be foolish enough to attempt the 3g Harlequin tank. Even if I use a larger tank, what do you guys think about putting the shrimp along with a boxing crab, being that their coloration is very similar?
 
I once had a rough boxing crab(Calappa gallus), he was awesome. He was quite the eater though, and he grew to about 3inches quickly. It was fun to watch him in the sand. One day my wife found a shedding which looked just like the crab, even thought it was meaty on the inside. A few days later at feeding time we noticed a few eyes in the sand and then he came out for food. Surprise! I caught mine, and have never seen them offered by LFS's, I even worked in one :D I may have some old pics.
Cheers
