so i have a 150g zebra moray eel tank with 75g sump that is 2/3 refugium, i have 4 32w home depot daylight bulbs on 8hrs a day, would crabs be alright with this lighting and what crabs do u think a zebra moray wouldnt eat (he is small right now, just a juvenile)?

None he will eat any he can as he grows. I wouldnt bother unless your getting them for free or atleast real cheap.
the eel might ignore smaller inverts as it grows. but its pretty much trial and error for now. keep it well fed if you try anything.
My zebra never bothered my hermits or snails. He would however munch any "true" crabs or non-cleaner shrimp.
My 22" black edge doesn't pay attention to hermits or snails, and I'd assume a zebra would be similar.
I'm thinking he ate our large decorator crab though since I haven't seen him in a few days....Hopefully he's just molting and found a good place to hide (if not he definately got eaten).
So hermits and snails should be fine, but other stuff I'd add with caution.

ya i sorta figured snails and hermits would be fine, but i keep getting confused by different information. i mean blue leg hermits are pretty darn small and i would doubt the zebra would bother with eating them and i was thinking of nassarius snails that stay buried in the sand most of the and they too are small
