Not sure on the exact size, but it's monsterous! You can see it from just about anywhere on the strip in Cancun.

I'm pretty sure it's a gold spotted eel. He was pretty dosile and was curious enough to come out of the rockwork when I came by.

I have to get back to Cancun again. Playa Del Carmen was fantastic. A little too hot for me, but the water couldn't have been more gorgeous.

So the eel wasn't something you'd be concerned about? And that was a crab you were holding? Do you have any pictures of it, either under water or with arms extended?

Marc- The eel didn't seem the least bit scared of me, but at the same time he wasn't intrigued by me either. We both kept our distance and it was probably for the best. I don't have any other pics of the crab with it's arms extended, but it's a flame box crab. They seem to be pretty common throughout the Carribean and if you google it, you'll find a ton of pictures.
