Emerald Crab Acting Odd

[astrobuckeye]

My emerald crab up until today has been pretty reclusive and only came out from under his preferred rock at meal times. Now it's middle of the day and he is going round and round the perimeter of the tank trying to climb the walls. Anyone have one that does something like that?

not unusual - he could be hungry.

Yep, plus one on the idea of hungry

Yes mine occasionally goes on a walk around the parameter of the glass all around the tank.

He’s hungry

Probably hungry. Any new additions to the tank like other inverts or corals?
Maybe something hitchhiked in and is pushing it out of its territory?

Nothing new. I don't think he is hungry. I've trained him to take food off giant tweezers and so gets either an algae wafer or shrimp pellet every day.

Can't figure a crab

Mine have been feisty lately. Maybe somethings in the air
