A healthy coral should have no problem repairing or replacing lost polyps, but again, in an aquarium environment, an eye should be kept on the coral for excessive damage being done due to the coral being unable to recover as fast or faster than the damage being done by the crab. In short, its a judgement call that you will have to make. </td> </tr> </tbody></table>

Are you sure It's not a Gorilla Crab, They can pass as a Acro crab sometimes but are Hairy and will eat your Coral like that!

As a general rule. Furry ones with blue eyes are bad and smooth ones with a little band that runs across the eyes are good. :)
 
Well he's probably in the mantis stomach by now.
