LoBo Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 i heard there not reef safe, but my LFS keeps arrows in their reef tanks. Link to comment
dsonnentag Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 not the greatest invert for a reef tank, i've even heard that larger arrow crabs sometimes prey on small reef fish like clowns or damsels. Not the greatest of choices, stick with a cleaner or a peppermint. sorry dude Link to comment

But as far as being reef-safe with corals, I've never seen one go after anything other than bristleworms and fish (when they're really big). Link to comment
