I recently purchased a boxing crab he is about the size of my pinky finger tip, put him in tank on LR and i haven't seen him since its been 2day. will he ever come out in the open?

Very rarely. Shut off you pumps, feed the tank and he may show himself. They are rather reclusive but you will see them from time to time.

When I want to see mine I have to go find him. Flashlight in hand checking behind the rock work through the sides of the tank. And still most of the time I can't find him. Rarely does he show himself and when he sees you he's gone hiding again. Wish they were more bold cause they are really cool looking.

Tough to see sawtydog but I think I see him. Here is a pic of mine from a few months ago. First time I ever saw him. Didn't even know I had him until that time. Hitchhiker freebie!
