My Anemone Eating My Horseshoe Crab!

I came home to find my aneomone munching on my horseshoe crab. I guess I don't have to take the crab back to the lfs now.

It swallowed most of it yesterday, and then started spitting it out. When it spit it out, I reached down and got the crab out, it was dead. 8O

Really it was kinda nasty looking.
