I have a stone crab that is getting to big for its fluval spec 2. So I'm gonna give him a new home for now. I have my substrate in with water. Just debating on what to do with it. Here's the tank and crab

Haha, I have a spec 3 and I know how "tight" they can be.
 
That thing is massive! Cool concept
 
I put a couple pieces of live rock in today to get the cycle going. I'm gonna have rock coming right out the water. I know it's only a stone crab but it's so brutal watching him eat. I give him a live goldfish a day! I also have a huge Majano that's probably gonna end up in there

I had one the same size in my native tank. Then he got bigger.....and hungrier, and meaner. Had to take him back down to the dock and let him go back to his home.

Oh they get big! Haha he was about 5 inches from side to side, not including legs. I'm down in savannah ga, where the water is brown:D

Man, I'd love to make the move down there. Everything just seems easier.
 
Dorchester, New Hampshire. Where the water runs clear hahaha
Ah come on man, the fish taste better down here:D everyone knows that where the water visibility is negative 5 feet, it's better lol.

I do lo love catfish! I can literally walk out back and catch brookies all day though. Don't get much better
 
What's that behind those dragon eye looking zoas?
I bought them at my lfs for $15 for around 20 or so polyps. They're growing so fast, probably gonna chop some off soon for the sake of fragging
