    Look up teddy bear crab and see if it looks like that. That's my best guess though.

    It does kinda look like one, I hope not bc I've read they aren't reef safe and eat fish. Time to go hunting...

    IME hitch hiker crabs are more often trouble than good. Good luck catching him.

    Life! Added my yasha white ray goby, pistol shrimp, and 2 porcelain crabs. Along with my cuc from reefcleaners.org, its for a 25g so maybe a little over kill. I ordered some barnacles but decided not to add them bc I would look right imo. You can see in the pictures my pistol shrimp wasted no time im redecorating the substrate. Yasha goby seems a little shy still, haven't really gotten a good look at it since dropping it in.

    Haven't seen my goby since I dropped it in, starting to think it didn't make it.

    What did you use to cycle the tank??Nerites will go walkabout so rimless tanks are no good for them.You will find them all over the house.:(
    Hope the Goby made it.IME They can be very shy for quite a while.
