I can't seem to find anything online like this, looks like a spider, much larger than the Zoa eating kind. Lived through my dip procedure apparently. I'd say he could stretch across a quarter easily. Moved like lightning.

 

Thanks

Definitely not an acro crab. 90% sure its not a decorator crab. I only saw it for 10 seconds, then Benny the Blade spooked it back in the rock. Really freaky. It was gone in a blink. I believe it was coaxed out with some arcti pods.

I didn't see any. Only counted 5 legs.

 

Well, if you say it looks like a sea spider and you didn't see claws, I'd go with sea spider as an initial guess.  Time to lure it out for some glamor shots, though, because we're all just taking shots in the dark right now :)

Can probably trap him with the inverted plastic bottle method. 

 

yup, or a pint glass with some food in the bottom.
