Spider Crabs in Moray Firth?

Bobert · Jul 25, 2009

Hey

Came across Spider Crabs today for first time, are they common in Moray Firth?

Also saw another type that looked like Shore Crab but had demonic red eyes and blue streaks on the claws - they were viscous!

Cheers

Spider crabs are common round the coast but the bigger ones are out in deeper water.
the one with the blue streaks sounds like the common velvet swimmer crab.
