one of my porcilin crabs that i got yesterday is eating my ricordia polyps is this normal and what should i do any ideas on how to get them out?!?!?
 
Are you sure it's eating them? They live in anemones, and may choose a ricordea anemone as a host. Mine lives in my ricordea, choosing them over the 4 bubble tips available to them (but occupied off and on by the clownfish pair)
 
Well it may not be a porcelain crab because i know for sure it was eating it. because the edge of one of the ric's has bright green tips and i could see it ripping them off because they are bright green and i saw him do it to the two polyps he has been hanging out by. These crabs are all reddish with yellowish spots. They are small only about an inch or so maybe a tiny bit bigger. If you tell me how to post pics I will.
 
To upload pics, you need to host the picture on a website. Photobucket, or flicker are both good sites for hosting pictures.

Then after you upload it to one of those sites, it will have a URL (www.photobucket.com/whatever/whatever.jpg)

Then you reply on the forum, and you click the IMG button on the top there, under the smileys. And then you put the address that photobucket gave you inside of the box. Thats about it...
 
It looks like neither and I know for a fact its not a sally light foot. I'm going to work on getting some pics up soon my roomate has a photobucket so I'll just use his.
