Spiny crab

leanne · May 6, 2004

I have a little stow away. A 1 inch crab (just looks like the edible type) but with spines on its legs and shell. Is he good or bad? Will he get big

?

Thanks

have you noticed any damage to anything in the tank? it may be a good idea to get him out as he could start eating things. do you have anywhere to put him like a sump? you could leave him in and see how things go on but it may be difficult to get him back once he's in.

do you have a pic?

There's no damage in the tank but I'v not seen him since. Only got a brief glimpse of him. Don't want to dismantle all my rockwork if he may be a good guy. As for the photo - I think he's camera shy...
