    Same here... I've not owned a single free-ranging crustacean that didn't become an opportunistic predator once it matured, including emerald crabs. Perhaps my 55g gha jungle loaded with detritus and leftover food wasn't enough (although they never cleaned it out), but that was my luck.

    I do realize that's not been everyone's experience, but I do consider it worth noting to potential buyers. Just keep a close eye on your livestock once they're in your tank...
