Crab with red mist


Hi all


Just a quick question to see if the red mist which has descended on my blue legged crab is normal?

On monday i came home to find him with my cardinal clamped in his claws and today my shrimp has gone missing - presuming the crab has got him too?

Thanks

Fearless crab hunter

A blue legged hermit crab? Its not the killer. He is just scavaging. Something else is amiss.
