I can see it! It's a pretty crab. But could it be a Pele ramseyi? Looks very different.
And you're right the shrimp in the other pic does look like Opae Huna.
Don’t think so. Need to research the name of this crab.
My kids swimming in a natural fresh water pool also found this crab in it and they look the same? I didn’t notice the crab in the brackish pool until it ran by and it is well camouflage to match black volcano rock and white coral.
they also found a shrimp, Opae Huna?
Fyi, no Opae Ula in the natural fresh water pool. This pool is a hidden “tourist attraction” and very common for people to swim/play in it.
Why wouldn't the Opae Ula share his food? Because he was a little shellfish
