These interesting little crabs are rarely ever available to the Hobbyist. The Boxing Crab is a small white crab with orange and black markings, which has evolved into carrying small white anemones in either one or both of its tiny claws. These tiny anemones are waved at predators to protect the Boxing Crab from being eaten. They will also swipe these anemones across the floor to pick up food. The Boxing Crab may drop the Anemones, especially when molting.
