yes do tell more. kinda interested in this as i never heard of this before. something you can buy?

I just got one in a colony I picked up today. They don't require "target" feeding, they will live off of what the coral provides and any fish food that gets stuck in their coral. I read somewhere that they will die if removed from their "home". This is the only coral I have that has one so we'll see if this colony does any better that the others in my tank.

Acro crabs come in several shades & colours. They hunt at night and scavenge about. In the day they generally stay tucked away and try to prevent the coral from predators.

Untamed, I think your picture would be a great entry for the July POTM contest.:wink:

Here is a picture of one of my acro crabs.

Great pic. I'd vote for it :biggrin:

thanks for the info. i'll have to check into them, and see about getting one

So turns out there was two of them but one ate about half of my SPS (on the one piece).:cry:
He/She is now in my refugium in a pop bottle.
Will my coral grow back its skin its mostly gone on the bottom?
