Gorilla Crab??

[drew2005]

Ive known for a while i had a hitcher crab but i could never get a good shot of him. Today i woke up and he was either dead or he molted. Not sure which one. Just curious if anyone knows if its a gorilla crab or whatever. I havent noticed anything being eaten or disappearing so its not to much of a concern.

that is a gorilla crab. most likely a molt and you have even a bigger gorilla crab in your tank.

I figured it is. I havent noticed any damage from him so i guess ill wait it out. I will be upgrading soon so ill deal with him then. Now i have to find this guy and the mantis shrimp.

Just to confirm it was just a molt. I crushed it and it was a shell.

i'd live with gorilla crabs if they would kill the mantis...
