Free Sump Crab Anyone? - Calgary

I found this guy hitchhiking in a piece of live rock. If anyone wants it for free for their sump let me know and I'll try and trap it. I don't have a sump to put it in. I think it might be a Gorilla crab. Not sure though.

Ok. The trapping begins. I'll PM you when it's ready for pickup. Hopefully sometime this week. Thanks.

Use a glass and a piece of meat food lean the glass fairly upright so he can't swim or clim out against a the rock he is in. Took me one night to catch mine and I'll take ur to if u don't wnt him

I tried putting a raw shrimp into a glass leaned against a rock a couple nights ago but never caught anything. Ill try again and let you know.

I have one of these pest traps. It's the same principle though. Once they go in they can't get out.

I don't know if I will have any luck with it though.

Crab - 1, Lee - 0 (bait's gone and the crab looks a bit fatter).
