This rock has been in my sump for maybe six months. Just noticed this crab last night. Hard to see with the Kessil but he’s pretty large, bright red claws.
Thanks

Hard to tell from the kessil light, is it red claws with black tips? And does it have a fuzzy appearance to it? If so it's a gorilla crab, and he's just fine staying in your sump :)
