We can try and snag some pictures if he ever comes out further!

Thanks in advance!

You'd be surprised what will show up in your tank even YEARS from now! Even hitch hikers on frags too. I now have brittlestars in my tank from frags, and a couple snails too

Trap them in a jar with a small hole in the top and a little food with rocks on top so they can't drag the food out that has worked well for me. Put it in at night and check in the morning. I was just kidding about the Trigger you can put them in your sump just keep them out of your main tank.

You may want to look at this site- it has some general shapes of crabs and how reef safe (or not) they are likely to be. There is a better site- but I can not recall where to find it off hand. http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-12/rs/index.php
