The only common names of this animal include the word "crab", which is inaccurate. Since these creatures are decapods and live in the intertidal zone, "tide pods" would be a more accurate term. I don't have an actual point, I just thought it was funny. GenericName1108 (talk) 23:29, 15 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
