It might well be that the tank is too clean and there is nothing to feed on between the rock anymore. So if it misses food from when I feed the fish it has nothing to scavenge perhaps? Quite possible. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Just caught the beast arched up with the firefish under it. Was looking at what it was doing as it started to coil it's legs around it... SUMPED until it can be re homed Is he likely have multiple emerald crabs in there for company soon? 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Grimes Posted 19 hours ago 20 minutes ago, Ratvan said: thats a smart idea, i like it Only reason is the tank is so empty I don't want to add anything else to it until I learn more about the sump and other elements of running a larger tank, not to mention the amount of cash spent this month 🤣. So thought I could mess about with stuff I already have. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
