Would a fuzzy dwarf eat an emerald crab?

[Chris Beddows]

Hi guys...

 

My emerald crab has disappeared....would it be possible or have any of you ever experienced a fuzzy dwarf eating one?

Emerald crabs (crabs in general) are disappearance artists -- don't count him out until there've been no sightings for up to a year.  (Ok, less in a pico...)

 

Lionfish will eat what fits in their mouth -- can't rule this out.

 

Though I'd hope you would notice the distended belly and say something like: "I don't remember feeding him."   🤣

 

I had a porcelain crab "disappear" into a serpent starfish like this once.  It was a mystery until I saw the porcelain crab-shaped serpent star later... 🤨
