What is the Swell Anemone Crab?

The Anemone Crab is a gorgeous looking crab which will form a bond with certain anemone species that you have in your aquarium. They will seek shelter in the tentacles of the using them for both camouflage and for protections while making sure that the anemone keeps clean and feeds it with any of their leftovers. They have adapted to be able to live in the anemones by having claws that can handle anemones sting. The claws are long and sleek which allows the crabs to navigate through the tentacles safely. Careful consideration needs to be taken to ensure that the right anemone is chosen for your crab as not all species of anemone are compatible with this species of crab
