found it

Red Burrowing Crab
anyone have any info on these?
reef safe?
isnt that just a fiddler crab..... in that case dont he have to have a place to get out of the water? if so i gotta bring him back. i'm hoping he is something different or does not have to have a dry area. He didnt have one at the lfs although that doesnt say much

bump- can someone please provide me some expertise. this red crab doesnt seem to be very happy in the water he always seems to try and climb the walls. found him in one of the back tanks today. Do they need a dry area? the lfs said he did not but im kind of doubting the guy.
