I remember the arrow crab I had in my 29 gallon reef tank over 30 years ago. I came home from work one day and the crab was over the top of a sea urchin pulling all his spines out.

Needless to say the crab was taken back to the LFS for some one else's night mare.

Luckily, they only have about a one-year lifespan.

Evil little arrow crabs. All crabs other than scarlet hermits are evil. IMO

Hi, everyone, he is very evil and lives in a tank on his own at the moment.
