Hard to tell from those pictures. If you see it again take it out and put it in a clear container with some tank water and take some more pics.

Ok. I’ll try. He just hangs out. Not causing any trouble.

Looks like a filter crab, no danger there

Possibly an offshoot of the decorator species (not all actually decorate themselves).

Body shape reminds me of squat lobsters variations but I don't think that's right.

He's so tiny I'm afraid he's gonna get eaten once the fish go in the tank. Currently the tank only has the rock in it. Some days I see him and others, he can't be found.. oh well.
