    Hir

    So I lifted up a rock that had fell over a min ago and behold a furry looking crab I think, it won't let upload a pic because I'm exceeding the quota any have any sites maybe I could identify it. It looks wicked, maybe that's what's be eating my hammer coral

    I can't see one of resemblance in there but looks along the lines of one of the xanthid species, it's completely brown with hairy legs an claws then it's top shell isnt hairy at all with few little spikes of top.

    Make a crab trap....bait it....and pull his hairy little butt out of there. You don't want him.
