Ok i never thought crabs could be so exciting! I have a 46 gallon aquarium and 40 lbs of fiji live rock. Anyway, i have been having some algae problems, so i took my water in to get tested. Not only was this exciting because i found out my water is fine, but i found a store that i like!! finally!! Good reef stores are hard to find in NM,, but anyway. I picked up some crabs to help take care of the algae,, 10 to be exact. They are all about the size of my thumbnail. So,, they are working hard, but i wonder if i could/ should get more,, theres plenty of algae for all!! Also i am getting fish in a week or two,, ( A fish anyway,,,)
THANKS!!

What kind of crabs are they? Make sure that after they wipe out your algae they don't starve.

Huzzah!! I got a snail!! he's about the size of a nickle, 1/2 inch to an inch tall. His name is Hubert (don't ask..) anyway. What do I feed the crabs after the algae be gone??
