Crab identification

I grabbed this guy out of my tank today...any idea what kind of crab it is?

It might be a Black Fingered Mud crab - Xanthid crab. I was looking at melevsreef photo gallery, and your crab might match. Follow this link to melevsreef and scroll to the crab section.

If its claw looks like this, then it would be a cling crab
