What kind of crab is that? It looks just like an emerald, but it's red. I want one of those.

I dont really know what they are... They came on my TBS (Tampa Bay Saltwater) rock as "Red Reef Crabs" they looks JUST like emeralds and I was suppose to remove them according to TBS but they dont do any damage (other than killed my 1 emerald haha) but other than that no nipping at fish or coral and they seem to stay small.

What color are the polyps on that thing? Looks like its colored up real nice compared to the earlier picture and alot of encrustation for the base. Good job..

Looks like it is growing good, good job. If you could find a name, we would like to know.

Nick, that "might" be an A. chesterfieldensis. It looks to have the color for sure and the growth is in a bushy type form.

Very nice...
