what kind of crab is that?
Pistol shrimp, they pair with gobies. Pretty awesome relationship.

My gobies are always hiding so its near impossible to get a pic of them.
 
I have 4 of these Tiny Cleaner Blue Neon Gobies (Elacatinus oceanops) in QT.

They never hold still long enough to get focus on them, but after about 100 photo tries, ONE finally Stood Still.

Let me just say - considering how small these fish are and how fast they dart - this is AWESOMENESS
 
I know I keep sharing variations on this set-up in different threads, with the clown goby (sold as a citron?) in the purple & green frogspawn, but I really do love the contrast. :) I keep taking pictures of this over and over again, in the hopes they keep get better. But I am grateful for them as they are now :)
