    Got there too late but the shrimp kept hitting it with a pretty nasty blow!

    Are you sure the crab wasnt sick or on its way out? My CB never bothers my crabs, does keep a eye on them at times tho.

    That's the third emerald and 4 pepermint shrimp and like 20 hermits in a week! All my emeralds were great, hand fed them all! Didn't think the shrimp could take out the big emerald, but he did! Thought the other 2 emeralds were just hiding, but when i saw him killing the big dog, I knew he must've gotten the rest! Oh well, just gonna have to tear the rockwork down to get him! BOOOOOOOOO!

    I'd watch out Braver, that emerald was def in good shape a few hours earlier, went after my hand for food like he always did! it sucks! I'd put my hand in the tank near him, he'd attack my hand, pinch my thumb and hold on while he ate! I could carry him around the tank working while he ate! When the food was gone he'd drop off and go on his way! Cool little bugger!
