Arrow Crabs

[~Mykle~]

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Are Arrow crabs reefsafe? They look like a spider so I like them, But I'm going to have a reef tank so I need to know If I can keep them or not, Thanks #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

I would not do it, they can be pretty bad on a tank. they are hit and miss. like any other crab they are opportunistic feeders. they generally are not considered reef safe

If you wont a large crab get a Sally lightfoot i have one good scavengers and don't bather anything

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#i have seen them in lots of reef tanks and the only problem with them that i heard of was that they tipped over some pieces?#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

They seem ok, but will eat other ornimental shrimp and smaller crabs.

I had one in my reef tank and it would pull the worm out of my feather dusters.
