My maxi mini and porcelain crab

[doublejhunter]

I've had this maxi mini for about a month now. A couple of days ago I came across this porcelain crab at my LFS and decided to go for it. It took right to the anemone and I've been ennjoying watching them interact.

Your Porcelain Crab

Your Porcelain Crab

Fantastic situation you have created here and I have a couple questions if you dont mind.

Is the porcelain crab totally reef friendly?

Will they host in any type of anemone?

What would I expect to pay for small one, ballpark of coarse...

Any other suggestions of crab or shrimp that host, i,e, harlequin shrimp or sebae shrimp?

Any info is much appreciated and thanks again for the great photo

The crab is a filter feeder and should be reef friendly.

I've seen pictures of them on lots of different kinds of anemones.

Mine was $15.

I know sexy shrimp will host maxi mini's, there are other kinds of anemone shrimp.
