This small crab Uses anemones on it's pincers to ward of predators.
The tiny Pom Pom crab is rather defenseless on its own, but it enlists the help of small stinging anemones to bolster its defenses. The crab is pink with delightful stripes, and the anemones are tan in color. It holds the anemones in its claws and may wave them at predators. As the crab moves around the anemones may sting other animals, but there is usually no damage done. Both the crab and its anemones will eat fish food scraps. If it happens to lose its anemones it may take a small piece of coral instead. The Pom Pom crab grows up to 1 inch.
