Aquarium Advice FINatic
Continuing my research...
I've read pros and cons about keeping hermit crabs (and other types of crabs) in a tank. Can anyone elaborate on their own views in terms of pros and cons. They seem like good scavengers to help keep the detritus under control. What's the downside?
Any particularly good/bad crabs to keep in mind/avoid?
PS. My skimmer arrived today and the final silicone is curing in my sump. RO/DI unit has been ordered, and sand is on the way. If it all comes together by midweek next week, I'll get it up and running with live rock and a dead shrimp chaser. Wouldn't be possible without the generous and helpful input of you all out there on the web. Thanks again!
