A pic that I would like to share

[flukes]

Hello everyone, First out like to thank everyone on this board for all of their great help and information

. Because of all the information I've gathered from the site, I am maintaining a very healthy and beautiful aquarium.

I would like to share with you this picture that I have a little teeny tiny crab that lives in a bisma rock. I've had him for at least eight months but just recently got camera that was good enough to take a picture of this little guy. If you have any ideas as to what I crab he is pleased the free to let me know. (Why do I assume that this crab is a guy?)

Look a the center of the rock. You will see his white claws sticking out of the rock. The first hole straight down from the blue duster at the top center. It is a symbiotic crab that lives in these Porites rocks. I have three of them in mine. Can't remember the name right now but will try to look it up later.

A pic of the WHOLE crab would be better

Can't get it. They don't come out of the hidey hole. .

looking good flukes, any chance of a full tank shot?

 

[flukes]

I'm sorry, I guess I should've circled him. He is very hard to see, but he is sticking out of one of the little holes on the rock. He never comes out any farther than that, I often wonder how he gets his food. I will try to find or take a picture of my whole tank and posted this evening. Thanks for viewing, and Spanko let me know if you figure out what kind of crab he is.

i had a small crab in a piece of coral i purchased a long time ago. it ended up being a galatheid crab. they stay small and don't bother much of anything. google it and see if it's what you have.
