Crab trap total

Tieg · 08-07-2007, 10:12 AM

Not to crowd the other thread (http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=104193) with more pics here is a pic of the total amount of crab I caught using the tumbler glass method over the course of 3 days:

The biggest one is pic in the other thread...the 2 little guys were caught yesterday and lastnight. The 2 together appear to be the same species (Gorilla crab?) but the other guy is for sure different in regard no hairy legs...stripes on legs...as well as his eyes are farther apart then the other two but in the end...a crab is a crab is a crab. Any thoughts on getting rid of them? Toilet? I have an over flow in the back of the bio cube that I replaced the bio balls with rubble live rock...would they do alright in there? Anyone local to bremerton want them? Free!!!!!!!!

Glad you caught them. I've flushed them, given them to my dog to play with, and smashed them and used them as fish food. O put one in my sump once and it got stuck in the skimmer intake so I'd send them to heaven.

took me almost 4 months to catch my Hairy crabs, they were tearing my poor gsp apart, really glad ya caught them so easily, i'd take suggestion number 1 and flush them but you could also take them back to your LFS and tell em they can have em back lol...
