newreefer77 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I'm guessing he's bad...but could use some opinions or a solid ID? Link to comment
yoshiod9 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 just a quick point of future reference when dealing with crabs...if they have pointed claws(as this one does), get it out of your tank. Link to comment
MrMoFo Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 i would give him his own tank he looks cool Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 What a cute pup. Yoshiod has a good point.. I generally make it a rule try to take out any weird new things I find in my tank until I figure out what they are and what they eat. Link to comment
rmhuntley Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 looks like a gorilla crab to me Link to comment
embryoguy Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 i have several of these for the past yr. and mine look very similar to the pics. ive never seen them nibble on any coral. i have watched them pick at the rock for algae many many times. i agree with the above thoughts, but i just kept an eye on mine to see if the corals are affected, but nothing after a yr. ive had emeralds go after my zoos/xenia instead though. and they were immed. removed. so for my tanks, i like these little crabs. they seem to be harmless in my tanks.
