markdadof2 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 OK, so the other day I found what looked like a molt from a tiny crab in my tank (the new cube). Interesting I thought. Tonight with my flashlight in hand I spotted him - but it was unlike any other crab as he had fan-like appendages that came out (much like a featherduster) then back in (I assume he was feeding). I am pretty sure it is a crab as it moved and I did see a pincher.. Any thoughts as to what it is? Good/bad? Is this maybe a porcelain crab? Thanks!

They are a good thing and I have never once had any problems with them. Nice find!!! Garrett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
