Identification help?
This is my Hermit Crab Fanfarlo! (If you were wondering- the middle one is to prove how much I love him!) Is he a Purple Pincher? He is really light... Sorry for the bad quality, it's just an iMac!

Re: Identification help?
From what I can see he looks like a pp hermie. Usually it is asked to make a better determination of species to take a clear picture of the hermies eyes, eye stalks, large pincher, and left rear walking leg.
But to me this hermie also looks premolt.
Edited to add:
As opposed to stressing the hermie attempting to take these type of photos due to possibly being in premolt, you can also check out the species ID here on HCP:
