The Emerald Crab (*Mithraculus sculptus*) is a popular aquarium cleaner known for scavenging meaty scraps, nuisance algae, and bubble algae. It is easily identified by its flat, glossy green body and hairy legs.
Absolutely love his character. I got a few clean up crew members due to bubble and hair algae, as soon as I added them to the tank they got to work. The Emerald Crab 🦀 is extremely fun to watch especially when a fish would swim by he'd throw his claws up like "I'm working here" 🤣. Definitely getting more for my other Tanks.

Got one that eats bubble algae!
Couldn't pass up the great deal on this crab.
Was extremely happy to notice that some of my bubble algae disappeared. From what I've heard its hit and miss.
