Can someone identify this crab?

I know it's a bad picture. Kinda looked like a red emerald crab. Tried to take him out but disappeared behind the rock. Being a douche to my encrusting gorgonia. First time I have ever seen him.

Had a yellow tang go missing along with a cleaner shrimp..... wonder if he is the culprit. I don't see him catching a yellow tang...

I can't really see anything and am entirely too distracted by the optical illusion that makes it look like there is the image of a sparrow with a yellow beak on that red plating coral :)

Maybe you can trap the crab and take a better pic? Could be helpful anyways if you end up not wanting him in the tank

I believe that is a gorilla crab my good man, not a very friendly or easy peat to remove BUT not impossible. By the looks of that second picture I can kind of see a claw which looks like a gorilla crabs.
