I have no crabs in the tank, this one came in with some LR. I can't get a better picture of him he never comes out when the lights are on
At night he always crawls half out of a hole to eat some coralline.

When I first saw him about 2 months ago he was the size of a pencil eraser, now he is about the size of a nickel.
He has always been white in color
