Percnon planissimum can be found in subtidal areas with very strong currents or places with strong surfs. To ensure they are not washed away, they have long powerful legs lined with spines to improve their grip and flat carapaces to reduce drag.

With symmetrical pattern of light lines. It feed on all kinds of algae, red, green and brown once.

Finger weg! Versucht aktiv Fische zu fangen. Leider ist ihr das in meinem Becken schon mehrfach gelungen. Da sie sehr flink ist, konnte ich sie bis jetzt noch nicht entfernen.

Sehr guter Algenfresser. Wird recht groß und lebt räuberisch. Hat bei mir viele Schnecken und eine große Anemonenkrabbe gekillt.
Würde deshalb bei Algenproblemen lieber auf Schnecken setzen als auf diese Krabbe. Ansonsten einfach zu halten und leicht scheu.

Hello,

I work at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada. We are currently working on electronic labelling in our biodiversity gallery, and I would like to inquire about using one of the images on this page on the screen for this species. I would appreciate an email to discuss.

Thanks very much.
