I have a few which have trebled in size from my rock but they have spoon shaped claws & pick the rock to eat. I'm sure these won't attack the fish, They're scared of themselves.

Sump him !! he's managed to survive this far so doesn't deserve to die

I have found 4 HH crabs so far including a mean hairy crab :eek: all now reside in a crab section in the sump. Oh and i have a HH porcelain crab too who looks really cool

put him in the sump rather than dumping him.derek

When he gets bigger in the sump, take him out & make a crab paste sandwich out of him!!
