Crab Looks Like An Alien

Occurred on January 17, 2024 / Moalboal, Cebu, Philippines

: "A pink lobster. It was found in the groove of a large pink giant barrel sponge. It looks like a crab, but it is a shrimp. Shrimp, crab, hermit crab, the difference is the length of the tail. Also, the shrimp walks back and forth, while the crab walks sideways. Crabs are said to have evolved from shrimp. Is it a threat? This is a small (about 1cm) squat lobster with a beautiful color."
