I'm looking for a web site that would help me ID a hitch hiker crab a saw last night. It is white and tan striped. Sorry I can not give a better description of it. I do not own a digital camera (why in the world would a reefer not have a digi cam?) So getting a pic will be hard.

Thanks

Sounds like it could be a porcelain crab. Does it have two fans in front of it's mouth?

These guys are reef safe, and are fun to watch.

Could not really see. It was in the folds of my cabbage leather. I was only able to see 3 legs and the under side of the shell. It is really small for now so I am not wooried yet. If it will be a problem I would like to know so I could grab it the situation presented itself. Thanks for the suggestion.
