Shepos Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 Good spotting Matt I didnt realise I caught the crab in that shot! We use to have a Blue Marron in there too, but ended up swapping him for the Oscar. The Oscar finally ate tonight.....apparently he loves the new Cichlid pellets I just bought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shepos Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Hmmm peas I will have to try that Thanks he is really lapping up the crickets and worms now.....so I feel better he is eating something (other than my other fish!) We dont feed the crab anything in particular.....he has just been scavenging everyone elses leftovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIXLID69 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Ive seen these crabs at lfs and have asked about keeping them with cichlids and they say it is not a good idea, what do you guys think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcloughlin2 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Ive seen these crabs at lfs and have asked about keeping them with cichlids and they say it is not a good idea, what do you guys think It's not a good idea. Apart from the fact these crabs are brackish water and only tolerate freshwater you have to bear in mind that cichlids would either eat or be eaten by the the crab.

mattyr Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 mine goes fine with 2 red jewels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepos Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 Well the Oscar has gone back to where he came from......He just got picked on way too much. As for the crab he just disappeared (assume eaten) about the same time as the Oscar was taken out. Live and learn I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
