LOL you're seeing crabs everywhere you look Wit!! Although I don't see one in that picture, I do have 4 left and they've survived hell and back. I'm a little partial to keeping them now even though I know your mantra when it comes to them! After what I put them though this past summer, they deserve to live.

The Fiji Blue Devil, Blue Damsel, and another Blue & Yellow Damsel will all reside in my 20 gallon long. I'm not brave enough to put a damsel in me reef.

The 20 long is the bad boy tank for fish under 3".
