the lobster is not reef safe or chill in any way. Maybe as a tiny baby. They grow fast and it will eat fish and inverts. The mandarin fish I would expect to be first but they can take out fish much larger

really? I've heard people say they were quite calm and passive, other people said they were agressive little things which eat anything. maybe it depends on their personality, as some people have said they didn't attack...

I definitely wouldn’t say they’re calm but they are not as ravenous as some others.

It will probably try to go for small fish (which is most of your fish) so I would definitely pass on it.

There is a reason you don’t see them in 90% of the tanks on here
