2 mysterious crab

[Raygamer]

Anyone know what crab these are? My liverock are from the Indonesian ocean and i saw these two crabs. Are they reef safe? How big will they get?

 

[jsker]

I would say a gorilla crab.

#reefsquad what do you think?

Its definitely in the genus Eriphia. Maybe a Eriphia ferox. Not reef safe

Get rid of them ASAP! I have one and it has snagged over a thousand bucks worth of fish in the last 2 years. Still can’t catch the bugger.
