Can you post some pictures? As far as I know they are reef safe. But remember that all crabs are oportunistic eaters. If they are hungry they will eat anything. How much did you pay for them?

Dr.Fumanchu Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Cowries are like snails, they arent crabs. Their diet consists of corals, sponges and gorgonians, so I would say NO, not reef safe. Educate thyself: http://www.reefs.org/library/article/r_toonen18.html Link to comment
