Please tell me this isnt a gorilla crab @ISpeakForTheSeas

Hairy.
Does resemble one.
Quite a few types.
All bad

I think so, especially because of the striped pattern on the legs. If you want, you could put it in your sump? I'm too soft to offer other options

 

[littlefoxx]

Yeah Ill probably sump it. Also found this thing

Also found this MF in pulling the rocks l, it doesnt look like a bristle worm to me?

I don’t think you’d be able to handle a bristleworm like that.

Peanut worm maybe?

It doesnt! I havent seen something like that before. Is it alive?

Peanut worm maybe?

I am thinking this too.

I put him in the DT for my big tank. Let the triggers, tusk and eels have a happy hunt lol

I can't quite make out the body shape in the pics, but if it's more oval or pentagon-shaped than triangle-shaped, then it's most likely a "Gorilla Crab" (or relative).

If it's more triangle-shaped, then it may be a spider crab/decorator crab of some variety.

This is for sure a polychaete (bristleworm) of some variety, but I can't say which kind from the pics (there are a ton of polychaetes). Worm ID is rarely easy, so clear pics are really needed (but not easy to get).

Most are harmless (so yours most likely is too), but there are a few that are problematic.

Okay cool as long as it isnt a baby bobbit! Paranoid about finding one.
