i had a coral-banded shrimp and it seems very mean. i need to get rid of bubble algae. do you guys think an emerald crab should be ok? i dun want any fighting?
Coral Banded Shrimp can be a bit territorial toward some tankmates and have been none to kill fish at night. Usually it means they are not getting enough food by scavanging for it. An Emerald Crab would be fine in your tank but don't expect it to eat bubble algae. It's not on their menu.

I have heard many people say emeralds will eat bubble algae and their tank was rid of it since having an emerald, however the emerald in my nano didnt eat it. Emeralds are reef safe, but do use caution. I had one bother and kill a feather duster. I think he was just trying to get the algae, but ended up upsetting it.

My Emerald is ignoring my bubble algae. I hand pick it about once a week to keep it under control.

If I lived in your tank and was fed 2-3 times a day, I might ignore it too!! Your critters are eaten good!!
Oh, Gwen, this is good. If you would stop by our house, I'd see to it that you left with a full tummy and a few extra pounds of meat on your bones.
