please identify. "good, bad???
I was transfering some LR from my 75 gallon reef to my 24 gallon aquapod when I found this small spider like crab about the diameter of a nickle. It has a pointed Y shaped head. I'm trying to get a viewable picture but can't find one just yet.
If you might have an idea of what this is please tell me so I can either get rid of it or keep it. Thanks. ~Chase

Ive seen decorator/sponge crabs that hahe the same body sahpe. If thats what they are, they might pick apart some soft stuff in your tank to decorate. Definatly not HORRIBLE, but can cause minor damage. Correct me if i am wrong.

I don't want to risk it since I will be having mainly sps, zoos, clams, and some softies such as rics and mushrooms.
I'm going to take it to the lfs to see if they want it or something since I'm not a killer of something so little and kool "odd" looking as this guy. I wont take him until around monday so please if anyone else has something to add please don't hesitate. Also how do people feel about emerald crabs in a reef with clams, sps, softies, ect....???? Safe? Dangerouse?
