    Hey,
    I got this guy today. Pretty cool looking. Anyone have an ID? He's going in the fuge anyway, but I'm just curious.

    Thanks, it is cool. I got it at the LFS (Raj). I saw it a couple months ago and he tried to catch it for me but it got lost, today it crawled up on a rock right next where we were standing.

    Thanks. I really want to know too.

    Tease ;D

    I'm not sure, but it is a crab so better safe than sorry. I will be able to see him more in the fuge anyway because he wont have to hide as much. I just need to clean it up a bit. It's a big fuge so he has a lot of space.

    I think that could be it. The shape looks kinda the same. Are they bad?
