Night before last I lost a snail, and then this morning I came down to find pieces of a hermit crab scattered around his overturned shell.
The tank is our 20g that we keep in the kitchen, with most of the livestock having been migrated over from a 10 gallon we used to have where we never noticed what now seems to be a particularly devious little crab. He is black, with yellow stripes on his body, currently less than half an inch long with pointed claws. We have only seen him once and didn't get a picture.
The only other know inhabitants are two more snails, another hermit crab, an emerald crab, a bi-color blennie and two clowns.
Any ideas what he is without seeing a photo, and if he could be responsible?
