I use to have porcelain crabs in my reef years ago....until the mantis shrimp wiped them out. Porcelain crabs are totally reef safe (filter feeders)  and love cyclopleeze. Mine came from Tampa Bay Saltwater (see picture link below). I would like to add them to my reef again since I have been mantis free since 2006!

Yup, porcelain crab. Don't let the massive claws fool you.
