Ok WTF is this crab?

I caught it munching on my RBTA. I tried to get him, but he fell off the rock and went deep into the rock work.

PS this is a pic I found online that looks exactly like the crab thats in my tank.

Can you wax them?


:P I bet Eileen is thinking Gorilla Crab.
I don't trust most hitchhiker crabs. If a Gorilla, you'll want to get rid of it.

You can either throw it in your sump or stab it with a sharpened implement i.e bamboo skewer, sharpened, chopstick, paring knife etc.

Stabbing is hard. Make a ghetto-fabulous spear with a skewer and rubberband.
