After Months & Months... I finally caught him

[LOTUS50GOD]

I noticed a gorilla crab in my tank....

He wasnt bothering much... but I wanted him out anyway....

Well I traded a couple of frags (and lunch) to a fellow reefer... and I moved a rock..... it crawled over my fingers....

It just about made me drop the 40# rock that it was living in...

Here is a pic...

Its about the size of a golfball in comparison....
He normally has 2 claws that are HUGE.. but one got removed trying to get him out with a pair of plyers... :eek1:

Wow, thats a Big one. I have a Red-Eyed Crab in my reef tank, I got him as a hitchhiker the size of a pinhead, now he is probably almost 2 inches across. He doesn't bother much though, but he does eat Collistina Snails at nights now and then, but they are numerous.
