Since you like predators, have you considered a small active mantis shrimp instead? You can feed it live shrimp and crabs and watch it bludgeon them to death.

No. ‘Apex predator fish’ do best in appropriately sized tanks. And despite the fact that a lot of people do it, keeping fish that will quickly outgrow the tank they’re in with the attitude of ‘I’ll just trade them in’ is wrong. The animals that we keep aren’t disposable, or rentals, or inanimate things that we can just use for entertainment until we tire of them or until their care becomes too expensive or inconvenient.because apex predator fish do best in this kind of setup anyway. I might trade the fish when they grow too

Angler will eat those things. A single wart angler will survive in that tank, but you're going to be replacing it every year and, not to be rude, but it's not a fish for a budget-conscious person. You'll go broke buying fish for it to prey on.Warty angler pair of skunk clowns and a blenny?
I was gonna get one of those anyway but not in a reef tank. I don’t want the tank blowing up
I am gonna put one in a plastic tank so it can’t explode the tank no matter what
It does, they're being dramatic. I have pretty much this exact setup in my 30gmy reef friends say it works
Oh dear…not another one…It does, they're being dramatic. I have pretty much this exact setup in my 30g
Relax they're all newbornsOh dear…not another one…
Temporary. Don't act all high and mightyOh dear…not another one…
Hmm.Relax they're all newborns
Doesn’t sound like the “exact setup” to me. You are encouraging unethical practices without long term experience yourself. How is that reasonable?I have pretty much this exact setup in my 30g
Didn't I say pretty much. I have all the same fishHmm.
