Anemone Crabs, Boxer Crabs - Lybia tessellata there's a few other names floating around.

Golds and wais both have stock right now.

Size of tank - now this is one of those animals that should probably be kept in a species tank. Something with an established sand bed - size wise, very little, these guys wont get much over an inch.

I was reading that many fish look at these guys as food - so you'd probably be best to keep them alone. even in my 5g reef, I have to search for her. She'll probably move to my 6" cube just so I can keep her in sight more regularly.
