Just caught a gorilla crab..

[x19]

I just managed to catch the gorilla crab that I've been hunting for a while. Any suggestions on what to do with him?

 

[x19]

He killed a lawnmower blenny, at least one emerald crab, and probably a bunch of snails. Pics forthcoming.

Go to your LFS and feed him to a puffer.

Yeah, I'm about 40 minutes outside of the city. South though, so a bit of a drive from WI.

That is quite a lil trip....i feel like he should be punished tho =) Id bring em to the LFS and let them have it seeing as a 4 hr trip aint worth it lol.

LOL - perhaps a trip to the LFS is in order :-)

Glad you caught him. I had one rip a couple corals apart. Mine looked like donkey kong...kinda freaky.

I took all my big nasty rock crabs and tossed them in a Trigger tank.

Congrats on catching him...he'll make a nice meal.

Thanks. I was inspired by watching videos also. Not just the killing kind of videos either. These creatures have the most complex eyesight. Mine is very interactive. And they are very smart. I want another one already....just not at the right place to do it right now. Hopefully soon ;)
