Found this crab in some dead coral I caught fishing the other week. I put the coral in my 10 gallon qt tank and just noticed him.
Any ideas?
Just for reference I'm in eastern north Carolina.

Given how hairy and what appear to be black claws, I’m going to guess Gorilla Crab or other crab in the xanthidae family
