green lobster in acro?

i was looking at my tank this morning and saw this bright illuminous green lobster? . I had seen something in the acro that was green before but i thought it was a mithrax crab, although i did see a small acro crab when i saw the green lobster.

do you guys know what it is and whether its fine in there?

ps sorry about picture quality , just the other side of the tank.

That is strange, I've never heard of a shimp that cohabitates with acros. My first impression is to observe and see if any damage is done, if not, leave it be.

cool thanx for the advice kevin. it doesnt seemto mind company in its home as aregal tang sleeps in there at night andthere is a acro crabin the same colony, which does move out the way when of 'greeny' when hes coming, so not very territorial.
