Giant Monsters. Friend or Foe?

This guy is one of the largest monsters I've had in my personal reef tank. There is another in there, equally as large but I haven't been able to snag it yet. So the debate here is.....Do you let it stay or when in doubt, get it out?!! There are positives and negatives for sure. What would you do?

I would personally let it live out its life in my tank. It's well fed taking care of eating the poop and goop.

i would get a kick out of seeing it when it comes out.

Oooh nice one!

Nope this guy gets evicted to the sump or refugium! But NOT harmed!

I only see things like this at night, usually when I spot feed mysis to corals.

True. I happened to see this one at feeding time and I think I only spotted it because it was so large and visible.
