Blueberry Crab?

[indianareefgirl]

I purchased a Blueberry Crab, got it into my tank this weekend and have not seen it since, I have most of my live rock built up and can see most of the bottom of my tank. They told me he would go around stirring up my sand, I didn't think he would hide. Do they like to hide? Would he have went up into my rock? Does anyone know much about them? or a link? I haven't found much on him yet.

Blueberry crab? Never heard of those, do you have a pic?

But if the LFS says they like hiding in the sand, it could be burrowed under there.

I would if i could find him.......if you goggle Blueberry Crab, someone out there has a video of some in their tank, He looks like that, no shell, round and blue, like a blueberry.

Yep, they're a type of soldier crab. They're land crabs and will not last long fully submerged.
