acro crab?

[fishbait]

I found a crab hitch hiker in a pocillapora colony that I purchased today. does this look like a acro crab to ya'll? If so, what are your opinions on it? keep it? sump it? flush it?

here's a pic of the new coral too. once again, my photography sucks. this coral is a brilliant, vibrant pink.

Looks just like my acro crab, Sebastian! If you found him living in the coral, then it's most likely an acro crab and is a keeper.

yeah, he was living in the coral. the pointy pinchers made me think he may be a fish snatcher. does yours have pointy pinchers too, biff?

 

[Bifferwine]

I think so... I don't remember!

good to have. sometimes called porcelain crabs. keeps your coral pest free. I have at least one in each of my sps colnies.

it's a done deal then. I took him out of the sump and droped him in the tank.
