Looks like Izu Chuo Aqua Trading Co had a couple juvenile Japanese Spider Crabs in stock on their last stock list.
Alaskan king crabs!

Up here in Toronto many of the Asian supermarkets have live King Crab (if they can get to Toronto live, they should be able to get to PA). Perhaps you could look up and call any Asian supermarkets near you (if there are any)?
This is a picture from a T&T store (not my picture) showing how they sell them.

Philadelphia Chinatown has had Live King Crabs periodically. Like slay said, call your nearest Asian supermarket, they might be able to get you some. BTW, the last ones I saw were much bigger than theses!

Sounds like a fun project.
Here is the build thread for Andrew's two tanks totaling 30,000 gallons. He lives in NY so you could get in touch with him and get some great pointers of setup and control systems. He pretty much did the same thing you are, building the house around a tank.

I gotta see this! Following along
I think there's one major oversight in this plan, or it just could be the wording.
You're looking at 75k gallons spread through multiple tanks. Are you planning on doing all of these tanks cold water? You won't be able to have tanks connected together and maintain separate temperatures.
I know you didn't go into any real detail, so hopefully you had planned around this.
