there are two types of sally lightfoot, the one in the pic posted is the other type of sally lightfoot..found on christmas island/galapagos islands... travels very far inland. not very sure if that sally lightfoot is reef safe.

The crab that ppl refer to as sally lightfoot is Percnon gibbesi/Percnon planissimum

aka Nimble Spray Crab

silverfish probably thought the sally lightfoot that ppl kept was those found on christmas island.. lol
