Porcelain crab hosted by Scolymia

[Cole855]

My anemone crab has decided to pass up my mushrooms and anemone and is now sitting on my scoly and mini scolys. Do you guys think this will be a problem over time due to the crab bothering them. My scolymia usually opens up at night but now the crab is sitting right on top of it

I don’t know but that’s darn cute.

I could see it an issue if it cant inflate it cant easilly get foot or open up during the day to get light.

If you move the scoly, it may abandon. If you don’t have an anemone, they’ll move from coral to coral every once in awhile. I’ve had them in a torch, hammer, sun corals... Usually the kind with tentacles.

He used to be in my anemone but i think my clowns chased him off I have 3 hammers and a frog spawn might try to pull him off and toss him on one of them

You can’t really force them onto anything. I think you can touch him to scoot him away then simply move the scoly somewhere else for awhile.
