      Hitchhikker Id's

      So I just picked up a new coral and I have hitchhikkers. I was hoping you guys could help with an ID on them and if they are reef safe? I have them in a 3g eclips that I just through together so that they aren't with the coral.

      The first one looks like an emerald crab, definitely a good guy. He'll graze the algae on your rocks. No idea on the second, but the general consensus around here seems to be that an unknown crab is a bad crab.

      1st pic = emerald crab

      2nd Pic looks like a gorilla crab. Move him to the sump or get rid of it altogether.
