Blue mannas in Karratha ?

[aussi]

I've been mud crabbing off a rock pool at back beach in Karratha for about two weeks now and today I saw in one of the rock pools this little crab. He was only about 10cm across but he had the most beautiful blue claws. Do we get blue mannas this far north, let alone in a rock pool next to a mangrove? Are there other crabs in the region that are blue? i wish i had my phone with me I would have gotten some snaps
