      Anniversary Present Gave Me Crabs.......

      Funny Day,
      Well I really wanted An Acro Crab. I waited and waited asked around looked on the net. I guess folks hate crabs.

      Finally good friend said he had one. It was on a something something coral. Clearly I was less interested in coral.

      Look what I got.

      A direct from Fiji Pink Birdsnest. And, its A Walt Smith. Probably 4 1/2 in across. Pretty beautiful. And being as I just met walt and his wife, to say the least i was pretty stoked.
      We saw the crab on the coral before we left,bagged it up, came home to this in the bucket. Look close. theres not a crab, theres three. And an oyster.

      Two of the same and one with BIG claws
      Pretty neat.

      OH AND THEN..........

      I got some macros from a fav LFS two days ago. In the bucket to QT a couple days w a powerhead blasting and stirring it. I took it out shook it off real good....
      I put the macros in the tank and and look what I found in the bucket.

      Pom Pom crab. It's holding small, white nems in its claws that it uses as defense & feeding. They're really cool.

      So, the Mrs found this. My new crabs are..Tetralia cymodoce. I believe I have two females and a male. When I was putting the coral in the tank the male fell off into the depths. In the morning he was right back in the colony.

      I do miss Chucks Addiction. I believe he retired.
