He is evil...I had one once. I saw him rip an astrea right off the glass and drag it back into his cave of death! :eek:

I just caught one triple the size of that he is in my mantis tank now hiding for his life I will try to get a picture.

Good for your sump. (Maybe)

But even better for a mantis shrimp or trigger if you have one of these.

It's a hitchhiker.(Came with your live rock.)

I got rid of about 20 of them little suckers in 120lbs of live rock over the course of a week.

I don't even give them a chance.:(

Those are evil evil evil and I have a crap load in my 190 that I am trying to trap and one in my 230 that I just saw last night. I caught one in my 230 about a month ago that had grown to almost 4" across. The last batch of live rock that I got was really infested with those, I call them Son of Sam crabs.

There's a handy mnemonic: Red eye, must die.

Looks like a rock crab, and they take out fish.
