Ok we tried a smaller emerald crab , he lost 1 claw during the very entertaining chain of events that happened after it was put in the tank ! Petey was on him right away but somehow the crab was on his face, holding on for dear life ( no claws were used,just with its legs ) then Petey went to the bottom of the tank to let the crab back to the substrate as soon as it climbed off him , He attacked it again and somehow the crab was on his belly near his tail! He dropped to the bottom to let his rider off again! Petey is just eyeing it now , thinking of his next move !
