Type of lobster is a thought those are big claws
 
Yep after investigation it was a hermit crab with no shell with is really weird since I only purchased 3 and still have 3 also I remember a week ago I noticed blue hermit legs and claws around an area and thought it was a massacre but still had all my hermits do they shed like shrimp
 
Yep they shed , do you have any spare shells in the tank , if you do place one very near to were he's hole is and he might move in .
Not so sure he'll move about much without he's shell as he's very vulnerable without one
 
I had a hermit ditch his shell and was running across the tank.. he never did find a shell he liked and died about two days later..
 
Pretty sure that is a molt from a hermit. You can see towards the tail where it’s broken and the hermit crawled out.
