Hi,


Anyone have a ID for this hitch hiker?

You may want to try and look through Crab Hitch Hikers

Had a thread about a similar crab yesterday.

Actually his crab is not an emerald crab. I believe your crab is either a type of mithrax or xanthidae.

That's one of the things I miss about having a mantis shrimp. I would always toss things in like that to my peacock, free food and entertainment.
