pics Crab ID Thanks!

[Victor1046]

I have never seen a crab this big in anyone's tank
He is about 2 " long and this is his second shell in 4 months
I just moved him into the 110 Gal and he is adjusting nicely
Thanks for any info on him

Is this the one you're trying to show?

That's him .....someone told me yesterday it's a thinline hermit
not a true crab....they get really large and don't do well with corals (tendency to know them around)

Thanks for helping with the pic,,, it was working yesterday

You're welcome, Victor. :thumbsup:

I've got a few of them in my 10g, pretty good little algae eaters/scavengers... when small.

After they get bigger (about 3/4"), I return them to the Gulf and let them do their "thing" while I collect more replacement troops.
