Strange Crab:
So I got a used 29 bio cube tank today for my mother, they just took it down yesterday.
Well as I was cleaning it out I found a nice little Electric Blue Hermit Crab (Calcinus elegans). Who has already changed shells, cute little thing, but that's not my issue.
I also found this little thing.. Kinda confused on what it is, its very fuzzy and soft to the touch, and a weird green color with red eyes..

I found out what it was, a rock crab called "Gorilla Crab" VERY BAD
apparently it will destroy rocks, coral, other crabs, hermit crabs, and eat fish. They bury in the sand, and are no good for us.
Sooo I took it into my LFS and the guy there (an old coworker of mine, from another store,) feed it to one of their puffers. : )
