About 3 weeks ago I discovered a new critter in my tank.Its what I believe to be a Sally lightfoot crab.Its molted once already and growing bigger each week.It likes to hang out on the same rock as my mushroom coral and it hides alot because its still small.Its smaller than a quarter and its a cream color with brownish cream spotted pinchers.I'm hoping that once it gets a little bigger it will become not as shy and show itself some more.Any thoughts on what type of crab this might be? <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" /> ruez269@msn.com

Sallys are often shy even as they get older. It sounds similar, but mine has more of the lighter colored banding on his legs instrad of spotting.
