finbir Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 oh ok but how it come about from algea scrubber Where as all my rocks been with me almost 2yrs, with only Saltmix was use??? moreover all go by filter wool (3 layers) oh ya did mix with dead rocks as well...... by the way does it do any harm to LS (coral & fishes) Not uncommon 4 this fella to enter the tank as a tiny juv along with ur new rocks. Unless u boil the rocks (stupid suggestion)... When it reaches a certain size u can hear its snapping claws especially at night. It will even reproduce like its freshwater cousin from Australia. Harmless far s my tank goes. N there u have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
