The Strawberry Crab, also known as the Red Boxing Crab, originates from the pristine waters of Hawaii. They are bright pink with many small white spots. Their front claws, which th ey use to feed, are blunt and flat on the inside of the hinge. This design makes it very easy for the crab to pick algae from the rocks. Strawberry Crabs thrive in invertebrate-friendly saltwater aquariums with live rock. They are peaceful, personable, and will generally get along with other invertebrates or fish. Plus, as omnivores, they not only control unwanted algae growth, but will also feed upon uneaten food. If you're looking for a fun, interesting addition to a new or existing cleaning crew, the Strawberry Crab is an ideal choice. If insufficient algae are present in the aquarium, the diet should be supplemented with both herbivorous and meaty foods. Show more
