    Crab help

    Thanks Renogaw but the hole is only about 2" of the floor. Do you still think it can work? I tried to include a pic to get the idea but the hole is hard to see. Let me know what you think? Any ideas based on my poor description what he might be? If hes harmless he can stay?

    Problem with Maroon clown

    I dont think its aggresion. Its a 75g with the clown, two gobies, a marine betta, one YT damsel, a coral beauty, and a majestic angel who is the one with the wound. Never see anyone attacking or even chasing anyone. But if you are right how do i proceed. And if its not aggresion how do i proceed.

    Just finished the first leg of my rock work. Hard to tell from the pics but it actually makes a horse shoe and almost touches the front. I will try to build up in the middle in a couple of weeks. Let me know what you guys think.
