I haven't seen a blue one and I'm guessing that's a molt.

Healthy mithrax crabs don't let you pick them up off a coral. They run and hide in rock crevices.

I have one. It used to be under the 144W upgrade. It turned hot pink and white at the base. I don't think that's a good thing.

The JBJ ATO doesn't come with a pump - you plug yours into it. So, it would be as noisy as the pump you are using.

For mine, I have a microjet on it and it is silent.

I'm sure it would be OK for a while, but sally's get big and hard to catch.

If you are just looking for a crab, I'd look into the pompom or porcelain crabs.

I've had unsecured frags go flying around at night. A snail bumps them unstable, then the flow takes them for a ride.

I've got a 660gph return on mine but I put it through a hydor flo which cuts down on the output a lot.

Then, I added the koralia nano and I think its perfect. The nano actually says 265GPH on it.
