I think it’s an Emerald crab but since I’ve never seen one in person I can’t be sure. This guy came in on my TBS rubble and has lived through a new tank cycle with high ammonia, 20PPT salinity, and 80F temps. If he is a good guy I feel obligated to move him from the sump to the tank as soon as I get some algae growing.

Thank you guys. He's earned his spot in the tank.
