Its marine and they grow pretty big, not sure how big they get tho.

You can get dwarf ones tho they only grow to around 4-6 inches and could go in a 30 gallon

just checked they get to around 15" without tail, spines etc so youd need a pretty big tank, plus no tank mates that are less than half the size of him even then chancing it and maybe no corals as they are known to inject them with venom and kill them off

Definatly worth getting an external filter, the built in Juwel filter is just full of biomedia, and the intake pipe for the Fluval FX5 which has a fine filter pad, water polishing pad, ammonia/nitrate removing bags and a lod more biomedia
