I bought a deco crab like 2 months ago, it changed its shell like 3 weeks after, after that it seems a little big I think; he started fight for the food when I feed my anemone, but I made sure both has food; couple weeks after I couldn't find my anemone and like the week after my cleaner shrimp disappeared as well.

I bought another anemone last weekend and as soon the lights went off, the crab showed up and went direct to the anemone, I put it away like 3 times, but it's still keeping attacking it, so I took the deco crab and put it on my sump for now.
 
maybe it's trying to use the nem as camouflage and the nems are objecting to it.
