Thanks Christie.

that's a great article.
Turns out I have some Amphipods (initially thought it might be a baby mantis shrimp) and some Spirorbid Worms as well.

Quagmire - not sure why they don't show up for you, sorry.
Do you want me to send them to you in an email?

Last ones look like Xenia or GSP or something like that... which would be a GOOD thing...

Quagmire: you're not the only one, I can't see the pics either.

During my usual 1 hour/day tank watch

I found another hitchhiker. Pretty sure it came in with some soft coral I bought the other day. I tried to take a decent pictures for 2 nights but this one seems to be rather shy. It definitely is a crab and I searched the reference section already but was not able to identify yet. It looks similar to the Xanthidae which as a read is bad news.
Here is a description

1 1/2 - 2 inches
smal dark red pinchers, pincher arm seems to be same width then other legs
striped legs
flat body
a bit hairy
seems to be grazing off the rock
nocturnal

Here is the best I could get:

Lemme know if you can identify this one.

Thanks,
Ang

do you mean the pictures from the hitchhiker crab?

I had to take off the pictures from the beginning of the thread as I ran out of space.

By the way I got another real good look!
This beast is really hairy! Almost looked like orange hair? Kinda cute.

I attached another picture - this time just as file. Hope this works better.

by the way - how does one get more space to save pictures. it seems I always run out after 2-4 pictures

I think that is a picture of Italy.
