Thanks for your input. I understand the crabs can nip but I honestly don't think it will happen. The crabs spend most of their day in rocks or out of the water and are not interested in the fish. I've had them for at least 12 months now with not one incident at all.. I'll look into some of your...

The plan is eventually to have enough space to get a larger tank for them but otherwise rehoming is the next best option. They take a long while to get to full size. I've had them for over 12 months now. I'll look at adding some more rasbora. Thanks for your help
