Thai Micro Crabs, also known as False Spider Crabs are tiny, fully aquatic crabs that originated in Thailand. These crabs resemble spiders in their appearance because of their unusually long legs relative to their bodies. They’re usually a silvery colour with light brown or beige legs.
Thai Micro Crabs don't grow any larger than half an inch in diameter and that’s taking their leg-span into account. This makes them great for nano tanks.
Similar to Bamboo Shrimp, these crabs are primarily filter feeders as they use the hairs on their legs to catch floating food particles. Due to their peaceful nature and tiny size, they can make a great addition to your already existing shrimp tank.
