Anyone have any acro crabs they are looking to get rid of in Calgary?

Highjacked!! I could go for a couple too if you find any Lawrence

Have you ever seen any for sale without buying the coral they were in? Im sure there would be enough people in the city to get an order going if we could get some in.....

I don't think they last long out of the acro, have never seen acro crabs sold by themselves. Who knows though, if we do get a group order going I have a few acros who could use some company!

I've never seen them "loose" and anytime I tried to keep them away from acros, they died pretty quick.
Pretty sure you need to buy them pre-installed in a colony.

I have never seen them out of a colony before.... If I find any "EXTRA" I will let you know Scott. I am trying to fill the 3 vacancies that I have.

Thats kind of what i thought. Oh well, I guess I will have to try and sweet talk the LFS'

Some lfs employees have already picked through the acros at the store

may have missed some though.

I've seen them available a few of the trans-ship lists so they can be ordered in. A local shop has ordered them in for me before, most came in bigger than I wanted (caprice was about the size of a dime) and they were fairly expensive.($15.00+) I've gotten the orangish ones(for acros) and the red spotted ones(prefer pocillipora/stylo)
