    I love those crabs. I've had my Emerald since day 1.. I think he may have got a royal gramma and maybe another sleeping fish but can't say for sure. He doesn't really bother anything else.

    KOgle has one too and if your not really looking for him you would never see him.

    I almost bought one. The LFS had one for $6.99 but they said he would take all of the polyps off... even though I knew better I still didn't get it. Oh well. I love these crabs they are awesome.
