This crab came off of a small frag I just bought at the LFS. Does anyone know if it's good or bad?  |

Was it just hanging out in a frag of SPS? My impression was that those little acro crabs or whatever they're called are just little commensurals with the coral and don't really wander around bothering other tank inhabitants or harm the coral. I've got 2 of these little guys- each one in a separate acro colony and they have never left the original colony as far as I can tell and both colonies are thriving. ------------- 125 g reef |

| It was in a rock with zoos on it that I got from a LFS. It was kind of cute but my husband 'took care of it'. |
