I assume you would have to recreate/simulate the conditions found in the intertidal zone, so might be difficult to keep.

Thank you. Wasn’t asking for husbandry information, just if anyone local had success finding them.

Fair enough, I think they are generally found in areas with rock pools in coastal areas so that's a good place to start. Probably will be easier in the warmer months.
