hi all ive read that these are good for algea control including bubble algea but are they ok to add with shrimps and snails and hermits? ill get a small one so it can grow with its tankmates.
does anyone have one or have had any dealings with one?
cheers john.

as far as i know they are fine with other crabs and shrimps because they are just algae eaters. i never had a problem with the one i had a few years ago
