"wanted" Got two of them more to go...(pics)

Here are just two of so many unwanted crabs. I Put them in the sump.

Who will win: The crabs or the red almost 5 inch mantis shrimp???

My husband says the mantis. I "The wife" saw with my own eyes the mantis run and give up his house to the big crab.

Let me know what you think

lol That xanthid crab isn't much of a threat to anyone except for your snails. If the mantis wanted to, he could crush him. Given time, he might do that. What are you gonna feed the crabs? I had one that took a liking to raw shrimp but they would probably happily eat some type of meaty pellet.
