Default anemone crab

1st of all, that was a cool story of your crab. thanks for taking your
excitement to the newsgroup.

2nd, did you like that scooter blenny? I have a lawnmower blenny and we
love 'em. Scooters aren't really blennys
http://www.peteducation.com/article....articleid=1961, so I
wonered if they are compatible in a tank? Any ideas?

I had one impulse buy (dead now), and a time where I helped out a friend and
just dumped his fish in my tank...(4 out of 5 I trapped and sent to pet
store, 5th is ok). It's tough. We all know to read first but sometimes the
pet stores just talk so good about a fish and you really really love the
looks of the animal. We all have done it somehow.

Oh well.

Another example of a stupid impulse buy.

From a reputable shop.

After asking a very knowledgeable employee/owner SPECIFICALLY whether the
crab is reef safe and being told YES.

It ate my scooter blenny.

I guess it would be reef-safe in a reef tank with fish too fast, large or
aggressive to catch and eat and nothing else tasty lying around.

I have too many crabs that want to eat everything. Will I never learn?
