Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / June 2004Crab & shubunkin OK?
Hi, I received (a father's dy gift) a small crab, body about 1inch, brown with red claws. He's now in my 20 g tank with my 2 inch shu. They seem to be leaving each other alone. Any opinions or suggestions would be welcome, especially food for the crab. Thanks! > Hi, > > I received (a father's dy gift) a small crab, body about 1inch, brown with red > claws.

Hikari do crab food I think. I am assuming its a freshwater crab. (Is there such a thing?) If its a marine animals it aint gonna go with a shubunkin. Water types etc asside I dont know that area for crabs etc I do however have 2 freshwater yabbies (crayfish) in a tank with 4 goldfish (comets) and one baby Koi Cod. All seem to get along fine although the 2 yabbies from time to time have show downs. Then a crustation grows they stop eating for up to a week prior to loosing their shell, they split the shell and climb out. They have a new shell under neath and it takes about 1 week for it to completely harden. cheers Scott > Hi, > > I received (a father's dy gift) a small crab, body about 1inch, brown with red > claws.
