I was just flipping through the Algae: A Problem Solver Guide tonight and noticed it recommends Pitho crabs as a control option for valonia. Anyone use them (or even see them available for sale)? I'd like to learn more about these crabs and can't seem to find any info. when searching the web.

Thanks,
Tom
