Hello all,
I bought a Pom Pom crab a few months ago.
After introducing, I have never seen it since.
I have a big aiptasia invasion in my tank. I have bought nine Berghia Nudibranch to help with aiptasia problem.
Two weeks ago, I counted twenty Berghias during the night, I was thinking it’s...
I have a pompom crab that came without nems and after a few days grabbed an aiptasia in one claw. I got some Berghias to take down the aiptasia in my tank and after a few weeks once they were all gone, the PomPom decided to grab the biggest Berghia and has been walking around waving his prize...
We're setting up a lifegard aquatics 7.4g to feature a pom pom crab.
Soft corals and other crabs, shrimp, snails and one small fish (TBD).
Relatively inexperienced at sourcing rock, as everything I've had has come from previously-owned nanos (running a 20g mixed reef).
DT dimensions are...
Anyone know why pom pom crabs are so notoriously difficult to rear? Google shows a couple of dedicated reefers who have tried with all kinds of complicated equipment. Apparently breeding them is about as easy as it is for any invert, but once the young hatch, it suddenly gets too difficult to...
Looking to set up a small ~5g for hermit crabs and a few other inverts (emerald crab) for our 9 year-old niece. Would like an aio style compartment for heater, etc. Hoping for controllable lighting of some sort. I’ve looked at fluval evo 5 but was concerned about a review that mentioned pump was...
I am new to saltwater aquariums and I have a 6 gallon tank I have done my research but I don't now one thing. In my 6 gallon tank can I have a pair of spotted porcelain anemone crab and 2 pom pom crabs? If not what will I have to turn down Out the the creatures I have just mentioned.
Hi there.
I've had a pom pom crab for around 6 months, but when I got it, it had no pom poms. To my great surprise, yesterday I saw it carrying around something in its claw. Is there a way it could've gotten ahold of another pom pom or is this a pest I should be worried about? I'm a newbie...
Just wanted to share a pic of my ever so cute Pom Pom crab I got a couple weeks ago. His new favorite hangout seems to be the intake grill of my AIO. I think he discovered this is where the good stuff gets sucked in which means minimal effort on his part to get food. Also... my pistol shrimp...
Hello fellow saltines,
I've been trying to find out whether a goby/pistol pair that I currently have in my tank will be compatible with a pom pom crab? I know they are compatible in general I just wasn't sure if a 5g might be too small to house them together. What I'm concerned about is the pom...
I am located in NYC. Willing to buy and trade locally, but also willing to pay shipping to buy pom pom crabs out of state. If you know of any sellers selling them, please do let me know!
I got a female Pom Pom Crab a few months ago, and recently decided I would attempt to get her a mate. I know her to be a female because she laid eggs last week (and has since released them).
I ordered two more Pom Pom Crabs hoping to get at least one male, and received them yesterday. I thought...
10 gallon Aqueon tank with a 5 gallon drum cut to about 10.25" length to act as a kreisel, sealed with silicone cured for 48 hours. Two windows that are 120 micron nylon mesh of about 4" by 3". Adjustable submersible pump/filter hybrid connected with two feet of 1/2" inner diameter silicone...
Are pom pom crabs safe with bta as I know that the pom pom crab carries anemones in its claws? Will this be an issue. I can't seem to find a thread about this. Everything I've seen says they are reef safe
I'm very interesting in obtaining a coral croucher, but I am very worried about the compatibility of them with certain types of invertebrates. I was planning to keep a tank with a group of pom pom crabs, sexy shrimps, a Randall's snapping shrimp, and fire shrimps. However, I am wary of getting a...
So, I've set up a 5.5 gallon freshwater community in the past month or so, and I came across a unique little invert in my LFS last week... a freshwater pom-pom crab.
I've seen these guys for sale online, but they've always been sold out or ridiculously pricey. This one was $11, and had all of...
