Ugly black crab
 

Does anyone know what kind of crab this is and if it's good because I caught it ****ing off the corals. Thanks.

cough on corals then dead it should be. I would not have a crab in my tank maybe in a sump but that would be as close as it would get to a tank in my house. They are not trustworthy.

look at the third row...take it out and kill it

Or throw it in your sump if you have one.

its the kind that goes squish from a rock or whoosh from the toilet :razz:

i feed them to my eels

+1 A dead crab is a good crab!

thank everyone i throw him in fresh water didn last long

If it has pointly sharp claws, then get rid of it... Not Good!

I got a glimpse of something similar peaking out from under a rock on the weekend. I also had a two year old cleaner shrimp go AWOL a few days ago and I wonder if the crab is the culprit. How do you go about collaring one of these bad guys?
