Just fyi thay get very aggresive as they get bigger. These and sally light foot crabs will never make it into another of my tanks. Jumps off rock and tries to catch fish.

I was at J&L yesterday and they did have quite a few if my memory serves me right.

+1 I have seen this with some arrow crabs at big als before (I was just browsing I swear!) ;)
They are cool looking but like all crabs will eat what ever they can so should be bought with caution IMO

Was hoping to get one to help get the bristleworms under control. Does anybody know if there is a more peaceful addition to the tank that would still go after the bristleworms?

Well my CBS seems to do fairly legit business in keeping the population of brittle stars down..

I have heard a mediterranean cone snail would control the bristle worms, I want to try it.

Have you guys tried a nylon sock with a shrimp in it over night?

I've heard that's an efficient way to get rid of some worms as they come and cling on the sock, do you would have to just rice and throw away.

I don't think I can even dare to take the socks out in the morning or just to look at them LOL :mrgreen:

Tie the sock with some fishing line and in the morning you just pull the line out with the sock while looking the other way and dump directly in the garbage.

LOL thanks ... I will try to do that instead of spending money on this cone snail :mrgreen:

A Mystery Wrasse or Yellow Coris Wrasse or a number of other Wrasses will do the trick.

They will also eat pyram snails and prevent them from taking out your clams, if you have any.

Plus they make a great addition to your tank!

Wrasses are a good way but some can become too aggressive and larger tanks are required for those wrasses :(
