My first marine tank. It begins....

New member here. I've just bought my first marine tank after keeping African cichlids for the last 5 years (I still have them in my main tank).
I purchased an Ocean Free 96 litre (26 gallon)
I have also added live rock and coral sand and the tank is currently in its very early stages of cycling.
I do have a question though.
My liverock contained a large crab identical to the one I have added a photo of. Is it going to be a threat to my tank when I start introducing livestock and corals?

Hello!

 

It looks like you are well on your way. :)

Crabs are always a judgment call. Most get rid of all crabs because they are unpredictable.

In the future, you may want to keep it simple by asking all your questions in one thread instead of spreading them out across multiple threads. It's easier for people to help you if all of your info is in one place.

I'd ditch the crab. Better safe than sorry

 

Don't add anymore livestock(corals, fish, snails etc) to the tank until its completed the cycle.

 

I like the aquascape
