Description: This nocturnal Hairy Clinging Crab (Mithrax aculeatus) was less than happy to see me. It was walking around, exposed, on a coral rubble heap at about 7 meters depth at a divesite known as "Wetsuit City." My housed SLR was fitted with my 105mm macro lens, so I did my best to frame the panicked crustacean, trying to dodge my underwater lights.Hairy Clinging Crab
