Just wondering if anyone has experience with these crabs?
I had a Brittle Starfish & an Emerald crab..been in the tank for months. Starfish growing and seemingly very active.
I got a decorator crab & the Emerald crab is killed & I'm pretty sure the new crab is wearing part of the blue shell.
Then I notice the Starfish doesn't come out at feeding any more. It's hiding place seems to be empty & today I see the crab in there.
I didn't read that they were predators but I don't know what else could have caused both of these two animals to disappear
Water tests fine except for high Phosphate, which I'm trying to combat.
So, it's it the crab or the Phosphate?
