Please ID our crab...

Found this crab in the bottom of our tank, dead =( Can someone please ID? There is a second crab just like this one, we want to know if they are bad for reef tanks.
Thanks

Judging by the "pointy" claws, I'd banish them to the sump. I'd also make sure that it is not just a molt.

I too would remove him.

Thanks... Now, how does one go about banishing a crab that is extremely shy?
