Mandarin + Mithrax = Safe or Not Safe?

[Taoism]

Would a Mandarin Dragonet be safe in a tank with an Emerald crab?

I am getting a 180g in July and am trying to research stuff to make sure things will go as smooth as possible. I definitely want a Mandarin (possibly two if I can get opposite sexes and a 180 can support 2). And no, I won't get a mandarin until the DSB is very established :)

So...will a mithrax prey on a Mandarin? I had thought of getting a Sally, but I have a sinking feeling about it killing the mandarin.... But emeralds might be ok?


Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Keith.

I've had my two mithrax crabs in my 75 with my Mandrin for a month now and the Mandrin is really fat and healthy and I see the mithrax every once in while.

I have Mithrax crabs (3) living in the exact same area my mandarins use as a hunting ground. They appear to ingnore each other completely.

I agree with Guy. I had two dragons and two mithrax in a 80 gallon with no problems with each other at all.
