Emral Crab, Fight for Life

I just bought an emerald crab from my LFS and acclimated the bag, Then drop him in my 75gallon display tank. On the way down he hit a tentacle of a tube anemone. The anemone put the crab right in to it's mouth. I panicked and with a reflex I tried to grab him. The anemone sucked in to his tube. So Panicking again for the pore crab, I stuck my finger in the tube. The crab grabbed my finger for his dare life, and I pull my finger out, and there he was out of harms way. So I put him safely on the other side of the tank.

I just thought I would share that story with you all.
Thanks for reading my thread

Wow Dic, That is a story I will have to tell my grandchild about.

Trying to shoot the bouncing things

Nicely done sir! Two terrible decisions, ultimately ending happily. That doesn't happen often in reefing, lol.

BTW, how did you 2 end up with the same avatar??
