BTA / Clowns / Mantis tank??

[yupuhhuhme2]

Has anyone kept RBTA / Clowns with Peacock Mantis before? I know everyone is going to say that Mantis Shrimp are the devil and they will kill anything and everything in the tank… but I have seen some great examples of peacock mantis shrimp in some pretty successful reef tanks in the forums or on YouTube… would be in a 50 gallon cube that’s not currently set up… wanted to gather some opinions. Thanks!

If you want to pay the game "will my fish die a painful death," I can't stop you. However, I strongly oppose trying this. Its just not worth trying from a practical and ethical standpoint.

Not to mention it will make the tank far more difficult to keep clean from algae as you can't have much of a cleanup crew
