This big electric hermit crab (Calcinus elegans) has bright blue legs and is native to Marshall Islands. This crab is suitable to a saltwater aquarium because it eats red slime algae (cyanobacteria). For additional feeding, seaweed is suitable. The crab grows up to 2″ and minimum recommended tank size is 12 gallons.
