How many pocelin crabs can I keep in the 10g tank?
I think the green emerald got hunted down. I just saw another one of his claws in the sand. So one of his claws got rippe off by something.

Well when it first went missing and I found its molt, it had both the claws.. and that was 5 days ago.. now I looked on the sand and I saw another claw. So I doubt its a molt.. It doesnt have 3 claws:p

lol.. yeah I have tons of hermit molts laying around the sand bed at the moment.. I think my larger holloween hermit might have eaten the tweo smaller ones.. havent seen them around lately.
The 3 tiny blue legg hermits are all around though. I'm looking to beef up my CUC in the next couple of weeks. Seems like they got a lil low. I have astrea snails mostly hanging out near the intake pump.. one is stuck inside it!

I dont know I noticed it in there a week ago and its still there lol.. unless it died in there and left its shell. I cant get the pump out because im dumb and epoxyied it to the tube to go into my fuge lol.. I can prob get it out but I think I'd make a mess doing so, so it'll stay put for now lol.

its still alive most likely.. thats what they do,, hang upside down in caves.. IMO there not good in tanks with lots of cracks and caves since you can really see them. I think I'd be able to see them in my tank since my rock is arranged in an open concept kinda way. Look how my serpant star is lol. I read that its better to keep them in groups and they only get about .5-1inch so how many do u think I'd eventually be able to keep? I was thinking 2 maybe 3, or two with a pom pom crab if I can ever get my hand son one.

Bah mom I'm loosing money o nthis tank! I have to get a frag rack set up! The purple shrooms keep popping off as a new one grows lol.. and they float to places where I cant get to them! Oh and when I used the elastic band on the blue ric, it ended up splitting it haha.. I have two small ones now lol.. but one went to the shroom grave(where the rest of the shrooms go so I cant get them lol)

Well I guess it was too tight then....next time try a piece of netting, and tie the netting over the shroom to the rock
