Bad Things????

[looneytoons]

I found a hairy black crab in one of my live rocks. Its about 1 - 1.5 inches. It only comes out at night. Is this a stone crab. Could it be dangerous. I also found a little starfish. It is yellowish-brown. It looks kinda deformed. Two of its legs are not seperated. Well are these tag alongs OK.

the crab may kill similiar crab species over territory, but should be OK; it will find food to scavenge at night;you may want to occasionally put small amount of food for it out after lights out

I would watch the crab! I had a hairy tag along crab for a day until I saw him trying to eat my Xenias.
