Default Emerald Crab

I picked up a purple/gold feater duster the other day for the LFS. I have never saw one this colour before so I picked one up. The day after my wife noticed that a emerald crab was dragging it around the tank. She noticed the crab trying to eat the parts of the tube. I for some reason did not believe her so I moved the feather duster to a new spot. Later that day I checked on the tank and noticed the feater duster missing. I soon found the emerald on top of the duster stuffing his face. I have put the emerald into my fuge for now. Any have this problem with emerald crab?

I had an emerald nibble one mine once but I chased him away and it never bothered the duster again.

I think its best that he stay in the fuge then. Crazy that he went straight after it after being so good in the tank. I still cant get over how easy he is to catch seeing that I have a little grey crab in my tank that I still have not caught yet.
