That certainly sounds like an acro crab, I have about four of them , all in different acros. They are all hard to notice except for one, he's getting quite big.

I'll try to get a pic of him.

Jeff, I wish it was a purple monster, its from the same family but its not one of the original (purple monster). I do hope it colors up better, its a balli aquacultured granulosa and I got it from http://www.x-tremeaquatics.com - www.x-tremeaquatics.com

He is local and I can definately vouch for him. He has some nice frags

Let me know if you like any of his acros and if you like them , send him an email, he will get back to you.
