Emerald Crab?

At first i would say this is an emerald crab, but his legs are very hairy and i dont recall putting one in this size. Emerald crab? Or nuisance crab?

Emerald crab. All Mithras crabs have hairlike filaments on their legs. Btw emeralds eventually become nuisances!! I have a giant one in my sump that started eating my acropora.
