Red-spotted Coral Crab

One can find this species of Red-spotted Coral Crab in abundance (in bigger sizes too) when diving in Layang-Layang Island, Saba, Malaysia. This little one was very well hidden in the hard coral so it took me almost 15 mins just to take one good shot each. It was raising its claw in defence although I didn't touch it at all.
