Porcelain crab fish/reef safe

Just wondering if anyone ever had experience with porcelain crabs killing or hurting fish, shrimp or corals

I had one, didnt bother anything. My gf was in love with it and wont stop talking about getting another one in my new tank.

Depends how big of a tank you have. If you have an established large tank get a few if you have a small tank start with 1.

What is considered small? The tank is 75gallons and it has been running for 9 months but I just recently added 30lbs of live rock

My boss has like 20 in his 180g. they just filter particles from the water i beleive... I haven't seen them show any interest in fish

Yeah you would be fine with a few. They just filter water with feather like arms grabbing food.
