Emerald Crab Killed By Bubble Coral

Late last night i found my emerald crab's body at the base of my bubble coral he was on his back and his claws look like he had them in the position to ear something. Its mornign and he has not changed. I noticed my bubble coral was letting out a lot of that red stuff *i forget the name* but i figured it was because of it stressing out from the newly aded flow.

Could my emerald possibly beeen killed by my bubble, i dont know how he did it especially since the emerald is at the base of the bubble

 

Are you sure your emerald crab didn't molt and that's what you are looking at.

 

ive never seen a molt from this guy but maybe, i just know the body never moved. Maybe ill just keep an eye out for him. But if he did get killed by the bubble, this bubble owould officially be a fish and invert killer

 

After they molt they will hide until their shell hardens.

 

hmmm ok guess ill give him a few days then

dang it this just means by bubble is stressing out and ill have to stuff him somewhere to get out of the high flow area

 

yeah its most likely just the molt...but i rarely see my emerald crabs anyways...

 

Same here lol

 

lol you guys never see your emeralds mine is out ALL the time, mabe he's just special, but im hoping its just molt like you guys said, this is the first time he has done this, unless the other molts are somewhere in the rocks

 

You just have an all around strange tank puffy

 

hahaha guess i do

so he is alive he's hanging out by the bubble
