This is a pic of a small crab that very hard to get a pic of. Shy you see. Only comes out when lights are off....stay's in his little hole in L/R. Any idea's as to what kinda crab it is. Other pic is mabye bristle worm I ain't sure...that why I'm asking you guys. Comes out of the L/R but any movement and it's away. Trying to get better pic.
 
Any idea's...please.Fot the moment gotta get to my bed. Another working day ahead. Cheers
 
The first pic almost looks like a Mantis shrimp. Really hard to tell from the pic.

Second pic looks like a Xanthid 'Reef crab'. Possibly Atergstis sp. Not usually reef safe.

Here's a pic of an Atergatis floridus:

HTH,
 
It looks like a segmented worm. Like a centipede almost but as I said any movement and it disappears back into it's hole in the rock.
