That's a porcelain crab of some kind - I can't tell what species from the pics, but it should be reef-safe.

I was thinking this too.
Look for the filter feeding apparatus/fans once its more comfortable.

Thanks guys..my tank is FOWLR at this time so good to know it’s reef-safe when adding coral in the future.

Ah, yeah, to clarify - we use the term "reef-safe" to mean it shouldn't harm anything else in the tank (corals, invertebrates, or fish; sometimes reef-safe fish will still hurt other fish or pick at specific corals or inverts though).
