Malta Ginger Mermaid, a local free diver and underwater photographer/videographer, gave us a glimpse at a Blue Swimmer Crab, an alien species in Maltese waters.
The massive crab, with colourful punters and legs and a golden carapace, can be seen floating in the deep waters, it’s arms extended as it hurries on sideways.

The species is unfortunately considered a very invasive species, with it’s population very difficult to control. It is a native of the Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf.
And while it sports an omnivore diet, the crab itself is also exploited commercially for culinary reasons.
