Strawberry Crabs...who's got 'em?

They are really neat looking but they hardly come out unless it is at night or when they are being disturbed.
 
I have one and talk about elusive. I will see it out and once i get near my tank he takes off hiding!

I have 4...they usually come out when I feed my fish. Otherwise I see them when the lights go out. When I first put them in they took off for the rocks and it took about two weeks before they started coming out when the lights were on. They are fun to watch.
 
Anybody been able to snap some pics? Mine hides under a rock. I'm keeping him in a frag tank with that one rock so that's the only place he has to hide.
 
Here are some I took tonight after feeding time.

Dang, I wish mine would have come out after a couple weeks. I didn't see mine for a year and thought it had died. I found it when I moved my tank so I sold it.:squigglemouth:
