Very cool crab

I forget the name but I had 2 a few years ago. One was exactly like that and the other was actually red. Great little crabs but they did eat some of my zoas. Every once in a while I would walk by the tank in the middle of the night and catch him chomping on them. Not enough to do much damage but still.....

 

Yeah, i wont have to touch it again anyway.

You really like this crab. lol

I think this makes sense.
So no crab in butter sauce? ;D

Thanks

That's sounds like a plan. I will keep you posted if i learn anything new.

Thanks

Thank you

Good thing it put him in the fuge then. How big did they get? Did you feed them or did they scavenge?

 

Well, I would have never found it again without the ID, but here's where I saw it before, partway down the page LOL.

This thing looks amazing. I want one. lol.

 

Thanks for the link.
Sounds like that person was having problems getting the crab to eat. I saw mine eat some pellets today though and I don't have my fuge lights on for 24 hrs a day. He was out all day today, I was really surprised.

Thanks. I kept going back to look at it during the day. He was right up to the glass for most of the day.

 

Here's some pics of him in the sump




Lots of room for him.

 

Wow thats a awesome crab!!!

 

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

 

Thank you.

I don't mind but he was free.
