Hi bro, I remember reading an article online saying most or all crabs will eat things they shouldn't eat if their diets are not sufficient. Not sure if that's the case for you

Me and another reefer did see our emerald crab feasting on our sps and another reefer had his zoas consumed. This is my first encounter on such incident. I have bought it because I need it to clear my bubble algae, but I guess it's diet is totally something else. Meantime, I have isolated the crabs already.
