Thanks!
Was it one of 4 reef-safe crabs on the same slide? The top two were trapeziid crabs which are the acro commensals. The bottom two were the spotted anemone crab Neopetrolisthes maculata (occasionally sold by LFS) and an unknown Petrolisthes which was photographed somewhere in the Indo-Pacific. The Petrolisthes was a brilliant bluish-purple against a pink background. I doubt it shows up in the trade & I
've never seen it as a hitchhiker in peoples' posts.
Cheers, Leslie
