Randall's yes. The rest need to entice them first with mysis, pod, fish egg etc. If they starve too much before eating pellet then it may be too late.

In my experience, Randall's anthias takes pellet readily. But what matters most is the size of the pellet, as well as the odour. So far, my pellet eating anthias are: evansi, carberryi, borbonious, Tuka and pascalus pecks at pellets. But they are too small for me to be 100% sure.

The crab in your photo looks like gorilla crab. They can damage coral and when larger, even attack fishes.

Hi. I'm from the west as well.
