An unknown and a new, to me, type of hermit crab.

Found the hermit crab in Shark's Cove Oahu, first time I've seen a blue and white one.

And found this in the tank the other day. Not sure at all on what it is.

Any help will be appreciated.

Aloha,

What you have there is called a hidden hermit crab (Calcinus latens). I'll post a picture from Keoki for reference.
The second picture seems to be a pod of some sort, perhaps an amphipod stretching out.

Thanks yet again. What is this Keoki you are referencing?

Well I know where I"m going to be spending the next several hours. Thank you very much, I've been looking for an ID site for the things I see here.
