Sheesh, you wouldn't think I have a pair of ocellaris in there, the male doesn't come out for much at all..


Here's a pic of the porcelain crab, not too often I nail the focus in like that. :)

How big are they, Tony? Do they touch each other at any time? If so, how do they react when touching?

Lovely specimens :biggrin:

They weren't in the same tank until last weekend. I pulled the brown guy out of my 75 because it was taking over the entire left hand side. Now the fish have a tiny bit more space to swim in there, the corals aren't getting stung, and the clowns are acting like they're in heaven since their territory essentially doubled.

Bev, they seem to be touching without consequence. I had a suspicion they might be OK but I polled on RC to be sure and did find a few precedents where this species was kept with others of its own kind and seems to be OK.

There are BTA's in this tank as well at the moment and they do look a little sulky since the move. I will likely need to pull them out of there for the long run. I'll keep my eye on it, they seem to be getting better as the week goes on, but there was a definite reaction initially.

Does the CC star bother the anemones at all?
