Are they beneficial in any way?

I need to treat for redbugs AGAIN and now I am upping the dose to get rid of these pesky critters - so I am assuming my acrocrab is in danger.
While it sucks for her - I have no place to put her so unless she is super-ueber useful - I might have to risk her...

Comments?
 
They do tend to keep any debris of the acro.....you can always take a toothpick and pop her off if you can get to her without damaging the coral and put it in a cup for a little while then stick it back on the acro before you place it back in the tank
 
they can protect the coral from predators..............but not redbugs....
