    of all the hairy legged crabs I know of, emerald crabs are the only safe ones.... my advice, chuck it or have crab legs tonight! one of the two.

    Nothing with "pinchers" in my tank (except CB shrimp) ---

    Don't like crabs, don't trust them.

    If in my tank would be riding the the train to reef heaven as quick as I could catch him...:angry:
