Strawberry Crab

Neoliomera Crabs are typically found in shallow marine environments, including coral reefs, rocky substrates, and seagrass beds. They often inhabit crevices and hiding spots among rocks or other structures. Neoliomera Crabs are generally filter feeders and scavengers. They use their specialized appendages to capture plankton and other small food particles from the water. They may also feed on detritus and organic matter found on the substrate. They are relatively peaceful and non-aggressive but may engage in territorial behaviors to defend their sheltered areas. It's essential to avoid using copper-based treatments in a tank with invertebrates, as it can harm them. Always follow the recommended guidelines for medication use in marine aquariums.

Neoliomera pubescens are also sometimes known as Strawberry Crabs. They are sometimes seen in the aquarium trade. Strawberry Crabs are typically pink with small white spots. They can grow up to 2".
