THANKS!!
 
Cool little guy! I will volunteer my sump for him if he needs a place to stay.

Not sure the specific species but it looks like a type of Xanthid crab?
 
that is a great looking crab, if he is still alive and you want to get rid of him let me know. i have a hitch hiker tank setup again and he would be a great addition to that tank.

I do not have a sump and my other tanks are not set up yet, it took me almost 2 hours to get him out i ended up putting him on a jar, i felt bad sorry.
