SRC Member LaW Posted February 22, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted February 22, 2005 actually its a cute fellow... but it eats nearly anything beside corals. If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless. Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. || Tank: 78" x 30" x 30" || Sump: 48" x 22" x 20" || Lights: PowerModule 10 X 80W|| Returns: 2 x HF32 || || Skimmer: BubbleKing Supermarin 300 || Wavemaker: 3 x 6100 & 1 x 6200, 2 x Wavebox 6212, WavySea || || FR: 2 x FR150 || NR: Sulphur Denitrator || CR: RM Custom Made 8" || KR: Deltec KM500 || TopUp: Tunze Osmolator 3155 || || UV: Coralife 12X 36W || Ozonizer: Sanders C200|| Controller: GHL Profilux Plus II Ex || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member williammuk Posted February 23, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted February 23, 2005 no prob...but must make her promise to take care of the little...er big...er hairy guy DB, I also caught two while moving tank. Now living in my sump. I took them out for a group photo. Their shell is about an inch across - not counting their legs. I also don't mind giving them away for adoption but the person must promise to take care of them. rockfish, can you ask your friend to post a photo of her crab tank here?
