Good crab or bad crab

[brad65ford]

Just got some free acro frags from the LFS swap today. After coming home I started to begin gluing the small frags and seen this guys.

I'm assuming he is bad so I did didn't put him in the system.

Any thoughts what type of crab it is?

Pic is not clear but I suggest placing it in the sump. Looks like a bad crab.

Totally agree, I'm taking more pics now

This little guys is so small hard to get a good picture but these are better

My vote is bad. It looks hairy. Most good crabs are smooth IME.

With that latter pic, I have no doubt it is a bad crab. It pick on SPS polyps.

You guys are great I got rid of it thanks for the advice! The fish store owner has to many Acro's and was wondering why this one wasn't doing well in certain areas. I got a nice frag hopefully it will to well.

One thing I love about the hobby is taking something dieing back to great life.

Those are the best deals too! I love trying to bargain for a browned out frag.

google, "Cymo andreossyi." I agree with others that he is not a good guy.
