Decorator Crabs

[firedave]

Does anyone have any experience with these little guys? I have two and one has developed an interest in my feather dusters. He has already eaten one. What is the food and best way to feed a feather duster. Do they need to be fed?

The Spider Decorator Crab, also known as Camposcia Decorator Crab or Decorator Crab, is a member of the Majidae family of spider and decorator crabs. It decorates its brown body with sponges, shells, rocks, and other items as a method of camouflage.
It is nocturnal, hunting at night. It is not reef compatible, eating some invertebrates. It may be harmful, as well, as it harvests algae, soft corals, and invertebrates to adorn its shell.
The diet of the Spider Decorator Crab should include meaty foods such as chopped fish and clams.
