Red Mithrax. He was an algae eating machine and liked to steal from the fish clip. 

I don't think I've seen a red one before... sorry he's gone :sad:

It's the off shore version of the emerald crab. The red ones are less prickish when it comes to picking at corals.

Oh wow that's cool. I guess those ones are good at eating algae. My emerald is lazy 😀

Red Mithrax and strawberries aren't the same right? We have a big strawberry in both tanks and they eat whatever. Only come out with the lights off.

Strawberry crabs are miserable pricks, they're mainly carnivores. One thing to remember about ANY crab is that they are opportunistic, if it's there and edible, they're gonna eat it.

Yeah, I was bummed......He’s been in there forever. He always sits up there in the early morning and I didn’t think anything of it until he was still up there when I got home.

I got so frustrated this afternoon--I'd take a picture that looked good on the phone screen only to find it ridiculously blurry when viewed in the album. I still can't figure out what witchcraft you use to make such gorgeous pictures!!

Thanks.😊

 

I know from a lot of practice the perfect times in the light cycle to take iPhone pics. Certain times of day are a no no because the room gets so much light. 

 

I’ve been saying for years now that I’ll use the good camera some day but I’m always to lazy to get it out. 😄

I tried with my expensive camera one day and found that my iPhone X did far better seeing through the glass. My camera is probably 10 years old now though, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. I can't wait til the new light comes this week and I see what good times look like on it. And can actually get the top of my tank without so much electronic garbage on top. I might even be able to get a top down view for once!

I'm thinking of selling off the 7D and lenses. I just don't use it other than long distance shots anymore.Too much bullshit to load the pics onto IG from the camera. With the phone it's 4 clicks and you're an interwebs sensation.

It’s such a pain to drag out the camera, and then set up the tripod....... by that time I’m bored. 😂

Shit, setting up the tripod is the easy part. When I do macro, I have the ring and strobe lights shit to set up as well, F that noise.
