Default curse you hitchhiker crab!!!!!!!

well i finally caught my hitch hiker crab tonight. but it was too late for some of the damage. i found him eatting some of my green star polyps at least i caught it before it go to far. he took a nice chunk out of them tho, i hope they will grow back soon i'm not sure what to do with the crab. my first thought was to throw him on the ground and stomp him into nothing. but then i remembered he was only doing what he needed to do to survive. if anyone has any ideas let me know. right know he's hanging out on the live rock in my refugium i made out of a aquaclear 50.

I gave my hitchhiker crab back to the LFS. He had a sump for him to hang out in.
