the scoop is......ya cant trust a crab! they are opportunistic feeders, which means they'll eat anything.
I have had the mithrax crabs and have personally watched it devour a colony of red sea xenia.
have seen it eating a chromis damsel that it caught. and I have known others to never have a problem.
IMO I feel any crab is a crap-shoot.
fwiw
