A BFC...Big Fargen Crab.. It is 2.5" wide and 0.75" thick.... ![]() ![]() It came out the other night when I was feeding...this was a quarter size "emerald crab" I put in about 6 months ago..and I hadn't seen it for about 2 months.. I am thinking it must go???

![]() Yes, it looks like it ready to pounce! It kinda looks like the predator from the movie Predator, with those beady eyes and patchy coloured head..
I bought it as a "emerald crab", but the "emeraldness" begins and finishes with the crab being green...then again I also bought a peppermint shrimp from the same store and it wasn't really as advertised either. Now, I know better than to buy from anywhere other than RC... ![]() The trick will be getting the bugger out without loosing my rockwork or a finger..

![]() Those darn crabs. I just found one in our display that was about 2" but it wasn't green at all, it was kind of a brownish orange with orange spots on it. I also had disappearing zoas. Some very pretty green ones--- a rock about 3" x 2" x 2" covered in them, and another with some pretty pink ones about 2" x 2" x 2". But we got the little beggar. I was told it was a box crab. Asides from that, really nice progression on your tank. Nice size, too.
