Hey Everyone,
So I got an Emerald Crab last weds 2/17. The first day I put him in he was out and about for about a hour, then gone. I haven't seen him since, is this ok or should I have seen him again by now? Not super worried but figured I would ask.

They always do it mate he will pop up eventually . Changed my scape other day n after couldn't find my crab, it was hidden in the rock that was in a bucket that id just took out drying . Was sound out of water for anout 7 hours still fine now
 
I have 3. I only see 1 at a time, Every couple of days. They hang out in the rocks all day. Look for it at night with a flashlight. Do you have any possible predators in there?

No I don't think so, I have 2 Clowns, a firefish, a bicolor Blenny, and a peppermint shrimp. Along with a clean up crew off blue leg hermits and snails, so nothing that should bother him. I wasn't to worried and figured he was hiding but figured I would ask on here.

Mine loves to hide in a small crack in my rock, when I have my blue lights on he reappears. Try looking for your emerald with blue lights on.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?
