Metznreef Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 i just found a crab in my tank, but i think it is eather dead or dying. it is about 3/4 of an inch accross and it has little net things out which i think are filter feeding mechenisms. what kind of crab is it? possibly a porcelin crab?

tinyreef Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 if it's using those 'nets' i'd leave it in. it's a filter feeder. now if he's armed with a nice set of pincer claws then it's like the vegetarian tiger. he might be ok but would you chance it? Link to comment
Metznreef Posted July 5, 2002 Author Share Posted July 5, 2002 i think it might be dead because when i found it it was upside down but i flipped it over and it's just bobbing back and forth with the current but the nets are still extended. Link to comment
Toyfreek Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Porcelin anemone crab sounds like, Filter feeders, tough to keep in new systems. Too bad cuz they are so cute! Toy Link to comment
