Is there such thing as too many inverts?

Generally speaking you don't want to exceed whatever their food might be and cause them to starve.

Or perhaps to many crabs could lead to aggression.

Either way they would likely limit their own numbers over time. I'm sure that's not a route that is easy to digest though.
 
Yes, when they start dying from starvation you have too much.

Or when similar species (crab vs crab or shrimp vs shrimp, etc...) start killing each other off you have too much.
