Default Pom Pom/Anemone Crab

Does anyone have these crabs??

Are they reef safe with zoas, rics, dusters, mushrooms??

Any info about them greatly appreciated

Amy...

They are fine....not very visible as they do hide....but they look really cool. If you have any bta's you may want to consider an anemone crab.. they are cool too...

I have both & they've never touched any corals or feather dusters.

My anenome crab was white with red spots & used to hide in my Pink Bird's Nest colony. She was very well camouflaged in there

It's also great watching my Pom Pom swing his anenome around trying to catch food.

That's when you can see them that is!

Like everyone says they do hide!

Mine stay out in the open almost 24/7 and they are the cutest most harmless little things

Default These are cute!

Mine are still in LFS for now
Just kidding, but from what you all discribed, I'll definitely get them for my reef soon

Well seeing them would not be a problem. My tank is a 1 gal pico.

Do they get along with normal crabs like algae eating crabs??

Can you keep two of these crabs (pom pom) together or not??

Thanks for the replies........
