This crab has consumed numerous fish and coral...
 
In one night this bastard decimated my ricordias. He's killed a couple of chromis and my pajama cardinal. My female pajama cardinal isn't looking good. Boodied tail fin.

ouch, so how are you planning your revenge on this guy?

Gripenfelter 02-03-2012 03:59 PM

Give him to someone with triggers and puffers or just dump him in the sump?

I'd go with the triggers/puffers route. If he's done that much damage I wouldn't want him near the tank, even in the sump. They're crafty little buggers...

He's apparently a Gorilla crab.

Feed him to a mantis, I've been trying to catch a crab that looks similiar to him although that one feeds on algae at the moment when he gets bigger he will go for more stuff.
