Sand Sifting Crab

Overview

These intriguing creatures spend their days buried in sandy areas, emerging at night to forage for crustaceans, invertebrates, and worms across mud, sand, and shell-covered intertidal zones.
They can be found at depths ranging from shallow waters to 50 meters in the Indo-Pacific and Mediterranean regions.
With their short abdomen, four walking legs, and powerful clawed arms, these crabs, reaching up to 8cm in length, add a unique charm to any marine environment. 

They're hearty eaters, enjoying a variety of foods but mainly forage in the sandbed. 
**Will eat smaller cleanup crew**
