 Re: hairy crab Hard to tell for sure without a picture but it could be either of the Xanthid species (not reef safe) or of the Mithrax species (usually deemed not reef safe.) If posting a picture is not possible, Google both species and see if you can find a possible match to the same crab in your tank.
