Can a mod start a new thread for factorboa?. It's hard to discuss the OP's post with other posters diverting the thread

Bad crab.

 

[factorboa]

i got told by a marine shop what i took it too it was a algae eating crab, is that true?

 

[Sadielynn]

actually it looks like a rock crab ,or mithrix bad ... as it grows it will become opertunistic and snag fish and clean up crews Best to banish to a sump or toss

 

[factorboa]

ok i will sn i find him again :/ but thats what a marine shop said hes a algae eating crab

 

[Jaybird]

doesn't look like an emerald mithrix, so I would put him in the sump.

As a general rule, dark/pointy claws means bad.
