I bought two emerald crabs that were the same size (the red colored ones though) from RC a few months ago. They both are doing very well and one seems to be growing exponentially faster. It has molted two to three times more than the other and keeps doubling in size. I know emeralds come in various color variations but I have never seen one grow as big as the one I have now. My question is whether or not a large one poses a threat to inverts, fish or corals? It is only eating algae (as it should) now but is approximately 1.5"-2" body with 2" claws. If I'm able to get a pic a will. Anyone have experience with very large Emeralds?
