Glimmer Crab

A crab that is attracted to shiny objects and collects them, adding it to its shell as it grows in size. 
== Diet ==
The glimmer crab is an ambush predator, it constructs a home made of debris, with an operational sun roof. They feed by attracting prey to its shine through the open roof, with their bright shells who light up by bioluminescence. The species is notoriously ascendo cannibalistic, with the youth often feeding on their parents.
== Sexual Bioluminescence ==
The crabs are bio luminescent when the roof is closed and they are in the dark, these markings allow to distinguish potential mates.
== Distribution ==
Glimmer crabs can live in the ocean as well as on land for extended periods of time. Glimmer crabs are an extra-planetary species, having been found on the Locker, a realm of the Weltan System as well as in the depth of Welts oceans. Whether the crab is alien in nature is a mystery.
