arrowcrab/featherduster

[1fish2fish]

if i were to get an arrow crab, would he attack my feather duster/scarlet hermit/banded coral shrimp? would the b.c. attack him? thanks!

Sorry to say this, but i've had bad luck with a arrow crab and feather dusters. Even though i fed him well he still picked at them and winded up killing one. I immediately got him out of the tank.
Just my experience... my friend has never had a problem with his though, so i guess it depends on the arrow crab.
Good luck!

Personality makes the difference with things living in a tank together.

I agree with b_ball. I've read many times that you cant keep this with that or you can keep this with that and most of the time this is true. But there are always exceptions and personality plays a big role in this. I have 3 different clown fish in a 29 gallon tank and have been told many times that this was impossible.

I have an arrow crab and 2 featherdusters.They have both been in for about 2 months and he has never bothered it!!

I have an arrow crab who ate one of my scarlet cleaner shrimp. Or at least killed it. And I was NOT happy!!!!
