Crustacean that occupies a cast off shell (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hermit crab

(Other definitions for hermit crab that I've seen before include "Crustacean - tribe march (anag)" , "Little creature with nippers" , "aquatic creature" , "One wearing cast-offs" , "Creature inhabiting empty shell of another" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
