here is the crab trying to hide in my rics. Interestingly, the "rock" the rics are mounted on is actually some sort of filter feeding clam or something. It snaps shut occasionally.

Carefull with emerald crabs mine decided one night that my kenya tree was tasty. So now it only has three polyps left.

 

I gess he was hungry because he took a chunk out of my monti too.

Is it cyano or red macro algae? Mine eats some of the red macro, keeps it under control. I have 2 emeralds actually, but one is in a separte "no light until the algae dies off the chunk of live rock" tank.

 

If it is cyano (sludge) then ceriths and chemi-clean worked great for me. It hasn't come back.

It's some kind of red macro turf algae. I have to pull it out every 2 weeks with tweasers because it is smoothering some of my zoos. And that algae is starting to spread on other rocks. I even bought some new rock which is cycling in a different tank to replace some of the rock with red macro grwoing on it. PITA
