a lot of difference of opinion here. doesn't make things any easier ...

I edited mine to add more information for you, take a peek back. Sorry I'm bad for that. I also agree with Muck that it's a good idea to start with a very lean CUC, and add to it if needed as time goes on. I would suggest it is probably not worth ordering a CUC (pay shipping on top of the purchase price) even if the cost per snail is higher on your local CUC. On that note, I have been considering adding another Emerald crab, but am so far undecided.

Have you lost any fish to your emerald crabs? I was thinking of getting an emerald crab but have heard of a lot of bad experiences with them. I am set on getting a porcelaine crab (although technically not a crab and more closely related to a lobster from what I have read) and have heard they are fairly fish friendly as clawed crustaceans go.)
