hoping someone can help me with this one since i havent had these guys in forever, the last time was when i was 5 years old.

my 15g right now is setup as brackish with a rock, large plant, and 2 gold dust mollies, and fluval 205 filter, 75W heater, and 54W light.

i was wondering if the mollies and crabs would get along together? my LFS just got some crabs in today so i thought it would be interesting to get a couple.

and what do they eat?

sorry, just answered my own question. the crabs are scavengers and can get along with mollies. i might get a few

Crabs need a surface to walk on so they dont drown.

Not sure they can swim up quite that high.

if i do get some i can make it so that the mollies have a deep pool and the crabs have lots of land
