Ordering a CUC in Canada?

I have never heard of a Mithrax crab killing any fish. Sometimes people blame a critter for killing a fish when he is merely scavanging an already dead fish. However, I'm on the fence with the Emeralds...the jury is still out. They have been well-behaved so far (over a year).

Friend of mine had a really big emerald... largest Ive ever seen. We actually watched as he took down his yellow tang. Luckily we were there to rescue it or it would have been lunch or late night snack rather.

Are you sure it was a Mithrax Emerald? Maybe the crab was misidentified. Unless the tang was like 2" long, the crab would have to be awfully large to catch it!!

Definitely a Mithrax Emerald. We called him Popeye as his his claws were big. His carapace was probably 2" across easy.
The yellow Tang was approx 3-1/2". Never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it.

Wow, never seen one that big. I did make sure to pick out the smallest little Emeralds when I bought mine. They are still less than an inch across the carapace I think.
