When I took out my LR from my 55gal tank I got about 30pcs of this crab. :oops: They were fun to watch for a while but when you realize they were scooping out coralline algae? Time to take them out!!! :lol: :D
 
Looks like a sump crab to me :lol:

When you see it eating sumpin it shouldn't you put it in the sump :)

Most rock crabs will eat anything (including fish and corals) if their natural food isn't available. It takes careful observation to determine what it eats and if it has a good enough supply to keep it from looking for a new menu item.
