Okay, I knew it, I knew I wasn't crazy and saw a crab the other night when the lights were out and I was looking at th rocks with the moonlights on.
I got a new batch of LR from the LFS and that is when I started seeing him.
He was dark (well the tank was dark) and I remember he had hairy legs.
This morning I wake up and see an exoskeleton on its back in the sand, so this guy must have moulted last night and now I know he is in there.
The right claw is bigger than the left one and it is maybe about 1/2 inch across on the body.
If I post a pic of the moulted skeleton, will this help to id him or do you need to see the live specimen?
Also, any ideas on what he might be from the limited info, and should I go through the trouble of trying to trap him?
Thanks for the help.
