slipper lobster safe with small fish?

[acoff87]

just got back from the keys where i collected a few things.
one of which was tiny spanish slipper lobster, about an inch and half long.
i figured he'd be safe in my 75gl, that houses a tiny grouper who is about the same size.
but im concerned about the grouper, tonight's the first night the lobster's been in the tank and i found it within a couple inches of the resting fish.
has any one had any experience keeping one of these? if so what was it eating?
also i was worried it was hunting my fish. i offered it a small piece of frozen shrimp but hasn't seemed very interested. any idea?

i also collected a few of them from florida. i had them in the tank for awhile and i never noticed it bothering any of my fish. it basicly ate anything that fell to the sand from what i saw of the ones i kept. it did however not last long in my tanks, maybe they are best left in the ocean/gulf

It will leave the fish alone but it will scavenge and it will also eat any clams or oysters you have.
