My Emerald Crab is Challenging me.

glenns · 04/26/2011, 10:00 PM

My Emerald Crab has been in QT with my fish while the DT cycles. The tank is cycled, and he was finally in the open, so I scooped him up. Tossed him in the DT. He had been walking back an forth along the front glass with his claws raised with the pincers slightly open. He has finally moved into the rock work.

The QT and DT are running the same temp and water parameters. It was setup with water from the DT and the water source is the same. The only difference may be is the DT has lower nitrates.
