My Favorite guys in my tank

Hope these pictures turn out bigger than the last ones I tried. I recently found out my Arrow Crab is a female....I totally freaked out one day when she "opened" her tush and started to pick at it...so, I called my trusted "know it all"...needless to say her name is now Mommy Long Legs. My clown fish just loves his "I'm an enemy" as my 6 year old says it...
Hope you enjoy them.

Yeah - my Arrow Crab can be a meanie at times. She does take little Hermit Crabs right out of thier shells for dinner. She has not messed with any of my corals or other fish though. The other day I was doing a spot feed and she took an eel right from me.....that was really cool. The day she starts messing with my corals is the day she goes back to the pet store. She has moulted twice in the past month and is about 6 inches now.....I have more fun watching all the critters in the tank. As soon as my Boxer Crabs come out, I will try to get a picture of them.
