What kind of crab is this? Is it reef safe?

Mine is a little smaller and whiter - looks like a baby.

Thank you :D
 
i think its from the family xanthidae. pretty sure its not reef safe. you should get rid of it or if you have a sump i would keep it in there.

I caught one exactly like that after i found a couple empty hermit shells every other day.

I named him 'The Rock'.. and may he rest in peace.
