emerald crabs

[big fish]

We were wanting to put 1-2 emeralds in our 10gal. tank and we were wanting to know if they would be ok with our hermits of will they kill them.

They will be fine. The two emerald crabs might scuffle from time to time but they never really hurt each other.

I had 2 emeralds in my 45... I loved them - they became very active during the day and were quite fun to watch. Altho I never saw a problem with the emeralds and the hermits, etc., I did have a problem with the emeralds and the FISH. In fact, one of them bit a fin off my toby puffer!
Thank goodness the puffer was healthy and recouped --- the emeralds went to a local LFS...

you do sometimes get a mean emerald. they dont usually fight with the hermits i think the hermits leave them alone cause they dont have a shell the hermits can steal
