Hi. I was wondering if anyone could help me identify this specific kind of crab, pictured below, and if it is reef safe? It looks like it could be a gorilla or mithrax crab, but I am not sure. Thanks for any help.

That looks like an "Orange Clown Crab", I think that's it's common name though I could be wrong. I seem to recall they can be destructive but don't quote me on that.
