Default Crappy Story

Well, this is my crappy story about my stupid anemone

I have this long tentacle anemone that it about 6 inches of diameters when it open, when it closes probably around 3 inches
Yesterday, my long tentacle decided to move out of its spot and i found it stuck between two rocks. And right next to it is a a huge crab chewing on it. So i quickly tried to catch the crab but i failed, i was able to save the anemone, he lost a little chunk of tentacle, put him back to the correct spot. This morning he opened up ok. I was kind of mad myself that i did not catch the crab because it is about toonie size.

Later this evening i saw the crab in the a tunnelof a rock, the tunnel is around size of quarter in diameter. i told my self i will catch him after putting my kids to bed and then i forgot about it. At that time, I noticed my anemone is on the move again at that time. Well after the light went out, i visited my tank and saw my anemone is gone, so I checked power head, nothng ther, the cave and still nothing. Guest what, he is in the tunnel that the crab is in.

I was like oh @#$@$#, the crab must pulled the anemone in for food but it is unreal that the anemone will fit that tunnel. Anyway, I took the rock out and tried to get the crab out, it is hard to get him out so i poked him to death and remove piece by piece, I also took the camera and snap snap his remain to show you guys how big he is. Then i put the rock back and hope my anemone will be ok tomorrow. Not sure how much flesh he lost.


Then i wanted to upload the picture and guess what my camera did not have memory card in it and the crab remain already got flush away.


Have you ever seen a crab eating anemone? i thought it should be other way around. I hope the anemone ok. Sad
