It started with some hermit crabs my kids pulled from a tide pool...

Awesome!

I was never able to keep emerald crabs alive when I had a pistol shrimp. One of those pops you hear at night in the tank is likely to be the last thing it feels.

My pistol shrimp and emerald keep apart from each other. The crab lives on the artificial reef rock, and the pistol lives under a piece of dead coral from the ocean a foot away. They don't really meet much, except for when the dang snails ate all his algae and he had to go forage and started eating the shrimp's food right next to his lair. But ...the emerald could not bothered to pay attention to the snap...weird.
