Hi everyone,

I have a 2 inch hemit crab w/ anemones on its shell currently in my display. I would like to add a 1-3/4 scarlet skunk cleaner shrimp to my tank because I feel that it would be very benificial to the fish. Here is some history, my crab is a known murderer. My husband bought a horseshoe crab after the lfs told him they would get along. Two days later, I cought the hermit eating the horseshoe. I has also eaten a flame scalop that we had in the tank. Can someone tell me what I can do?


thanks
Mo

Unless you desperately need that crab...(and I fail to see any instance that you would) take it back to the store.Crabs this size will eat anything they can catch or pretty much anything they like.
Or,I think it would go well on top of the Ritz cracker...

I thought that was supposed to be a peppermint shrimp (Lysmata wurdemanni) that went well on a Ritz cracker?
