ugly terrible crab for free PSL

[dragonette]

Hello all!
I have a decorator crab I purchased from reefscavengers a while ago.
he is ugly, he is big and he is pretty much the scariest thing in my tank!

he has various polyps on his back.. and the reason Im giving him away is because he has a thing for mushrooms... and he ends up destroying the shrooms trying to get them off the rock.. and onto his back! I just got a new red shroom rock from liveaquaria today and he has already torn at two of the shrooms!

He would be great for a sps or a Fish only tank. although I think he is ;mostly' fine in a reef tank, I wouldnt want to make anyone cry when he tears your softies to threads!

He is in a holding tupperware in the tank right now.

He is about 1.5-2" round, with a pointy head.
come pick him up or Im taking him to a LFS on monday
Im off gatlin/rosser in PSL

that thing actually looks kinda cool. Puts polyps on him?

That's funny. GL!

I still have this little booger I feel terrible about taking him to the LFS

(Yes, I am attached to an ugly invert...)

He actually is really cool and whenever Ive had people over to trade reef stuff or whatever.. they ALWAYS comment on him. He just really likes to TEAR apart soft mushrooms.. I mean the ones with a smooth top. Ive got some sanctihomae shrooms he wont touch.

I hope someone falls for him before I take him to the LFS I have him in tupperware quarantine and Im feeding him in there. I may have to just go get rid of him though
