found a new crab

[shark32]

Hi all,
I turned on my nano cube light this morning and found this crab looking back at me from one of the rocks...I grabbed my camera but he moved into the rock...I have had this tank set up since June and have never seen him before..here are a few pics(he looks a little scary LOL):

I found the same one in my biocube
He's all black when I 1st found him he wasn't he size of a dime bows he's a quater.
What is it I have no clue

I have no clue either...mine is about an inch and a half at least...my peppermint shrimp was walking on him this morning at he didn't react...I actually think he's kind of cool and my kids have already named him King.. so far he hasn't bothered any of inhabitants and I hope it stays that way....

I would not trust them. They are scavengers and will eat anything.

^ na crabs are an easy catch just grab a glass jar that is taller then the crab is wide put it in the sand with the sand mounded up so he can get into the jar,put some food in and wait till morning

He's been there for 2 years now
I'll feel bad lol

Well the solution to that is easy . Just set him up his own little tank
