I bought this frag today and forgot what they said it was if they even told me at all. Any idea.

I also put it in the tank and within 20 minutes my emerald was eating it like it was a a lion on a gazelle. Just tearing it apart. I grabbed it away but does that mean I am doomed for getting it to live with the crab in the tank?

Any ideas???

Looks more like a closed colony of clove polyps (clavularia) to me. As far as the crab is concerned, sounds like you got a coral eater. Banish to the sump.
 
New pic of the coral opened up. Is it a Clove? It looke much better today except for the one stalk that the crab had his way with. He doesnt mess with any other corals just this one.
