Crab ID Please

[Pitcom]

I found 8 of these little crabs on the live rock i bought today.
They are about the size of a pea or chick pea and are red with white dots on em. They have completely white bellies.

the pic is not good enought,if you can get a better one.
it might be a Stylophora simbiontic crab,

I'll try but the thing is just so small i can't get the camera to focus.

It does look like an acro crab, maybe Trapezia rufopunctata, but the picture is just not clear enough to be sure.

i am going to also take a crack at it, it could be a strawberry crab, if it is a strawberry they are rare and are reef safe

just google strawberry crab and see some of the pictures and if they look like that, hopefully that what it is

It looks exactly like the strawberry crab. The only difference is it has a touch more white spots. The eyes and claws are identical tho. Thanks everyone. I decided to leave him in the tank and he has gone and found a home in the rock i guess. Not sure if I will see it again any time soon.
