    Stowaway Crab

    This little guy was in a bag of hermits I ordered. He's about 1-2cm across. His front claws are pretty long comparatively and very symetrical. Maybe a porcelain crab? Does not look like the mithrax that came in a separate bag.

    Tiny pink crab

    Finding hitchhikers (benign ones especially) is actually one of my favorite things about reef-keeping! And today I noticed a new friend in my 1.5 gallon that I most definitely did not add. It’s a beautiful little crab, but not particularly active— I’ve never actually seen it move, just sort of...

    Please help me identify

    hoping somebody can help me identify this little critter. I’ve just started my tank, so it is a little cloudy, but after 20 minutes of setting it up, I noticed this little guy.

    Crab Identification, Please

    This little guy has been eluding my camera for quite a while now, but I finally got a picture of him. He was a hitchhiker on a Petco rock and he’s super chill. He hides most of the time and only comes out when food is close to him.

    Crab ID

    This carb has made a hole in the sand under all my rocks I would never be able to get him. Should I leave him in or get him out. Is he safe to leave in?
