I bought some beautiful true blue zoos.
I noticed the other day that there is a little crab living in a crevace.
I have tried to kill him, I stuck things in the little crevace, but I cant kill him
His claws are pointed and they are black and white in color.
How do I rid him from the rock? :help:

if the soda touches the zoos will they be injured?

You could try boiling water and a hypodermic needle. Even if some zoos are damaged in the process, they will grow back. Although if you are careful enough... you will damage the crab enough for him to die, leaving the colony allright.

I'm not sure about that one, but I doubt it. Just use a turkey baster to target the hole the crab is in and he will run out immediately.

Just do it in a bucket full for SW, not the tank. I know that makes since, but sometimes in SW I swear we forget the obvious.
