Arrow Crab

Stenorhychus seticornis  -  The Arrow Crab is one of the most unique invertebrates available for marine aquariums. With its impossibly long legs, triangular body, and curious personality, this Caribbean species is sure to draw attention from visitors and fellow hobbyists alike.

These cultured Arrow Crabs are produced by our partners at Bocas Mariculture in Panama, providing a sustainable alternative to wild collection. Arrow Crabs spend much of their time exploring rockwork in search of food and can help consume leftover meaty foods, detritus, and some nuisance bristleworms.

While generally reef compatible, Arrow Crabs are opportunistic scavengers and may prey on very small ornamental crustaceans or other sessile invertebrates if underfed. They are best suited for established aquariums with plenty of rockwork to explore and hide among.

Like all cultured livestock offered by Biota, these Arrow Crabs are part of our commitment to supporting sustainable marine aquaculture and reducing pressure on wild reef ecosystems.
