Panther Crab - PARATHELPHUSA PANTHERINA

The Panther Crab is one of the few true aquatic crabs in the hobby.  

They are fairly new to the hobby and do well with larger community friendly fish due to their smaller claws though they can go after other inverts and small bottom dwelling fish.

Despite being fully aquatic, they will still go out on land and will find ways to escape if the tank isn't secured.  

These crabs love to eat a good mix of meats and vegetation along with just about anything else that is aquatic food (variety is key to good health).  

Fully grown, they reach about 4-5" on average (3" for the body + 1-2" for legs/claws).
