Maybe a Sally Lightfoot? Not too sure, maybe look on liveaquaria or google "chucks addiction hitchhiker" or something along those lines. Looks cool, good luck!

Defiantly not a Sally lightfoot same coloration as some but the pincers are twice as long, more like a langoustine without the butt.

I have tried hitchhikers guide and google but my google powers are lacking in this area
