So I finally felt the 29 was established enough, the octopus skimmer (ironic) was octoproofed, and cycling was well over, so I put him in and took some pictures, as usual bad quality sorry. (Yes the cyano has been there and in the old tank since I moved some LR in to help seed. It appears to be diminishing.

hummelinckis wont get too much larger in the mantle (around 4 inch mantle max), arm to arm fully extended is a foot now. He eats fresh scallops or shrimp as a staple, with occasional crab/snail live food snacks I order every now and then.
 
I love the last picture. It looks like he is begging.
