Default Here's something goofy

Last night I found my new RBTA shrunken to the size of a toonie. I could not figure out the problem until by chance I saw an Emerald Crab under the anemone. I reached in and shoved the crab out of the way, but noticed later it was heading back in that direction. It was sitting under a rock, so I reached back in and snagged the crab between my fingers. (how I don't know) I tossed the crab into my other tank, and the anemone looks fine this morning.

Emerald crabs, ime, can develop a taste for all kinds of things other than bubble algae. Once had one that went after my galaxy Back to the lfs it went

Glad you discovered the problem with your RBTA
