Could this be eating my Xenia?

[wingworm]

Hi all,

 

i have a hitchhiker in my tank, I've known about him for

about 6 months but not worried about him, until my new pulsing

xenia seemed to be devoured overnight right. I have emerald and

blue legged crabs in the tank which never seem to touch my

corals. I'm wondering if this fellow could be causing the problems.

 

i think he's a crab, but you can see so little of him it's hard

to tell..he's about the size of a quarter.

 

anyone know what it is?

 

 

sorry about the pic quality but this is the best I can get with

the lights out.

 

thanks

some kinda mythrax crab would be my guess. i have one in my ten and he ate some zoos....i wanted to kill him but my gf got ####ed off at me and yeah.....long story short, he's still there but he's living on a prayer(bon jovi shout out!).

oh yeah, the chances are pretty good that he ate your xenia, i would bet.
