On the Friday dive while exploring the sand west of Devils Grotto we came across a small Rough Box Crab. While observing this crab we notice an estrange creature amongst all the hermits that were around. Very small body (half size of a finger nail)with a lobster body shape and two very long arms connected with elbow like features and with pincers at the end. Thanks to Laura from Don Foster's Dive and the Paul Humann creature book, we identified the creature as "Common Squat Hermit". Extremely small but very cool!
