Need help - id?

My wife said there was something in the 40 gal tank that looked like a1/2 inch spider/scorpion eating an anemone. I've never seen it and the photos she took were pretty blurry. Are there any answers or even a good guess out there.

Here is the photo, as you may be able to tell it hit the anemone pretty hard.

I have no idea what that is, but just wanted to say ... OMG, you gotta trap that thing!

My guess would be squat lobster

Or a spider crab...

I finally caught it! It does look like a spider and has little crab claws.

Spider crab... spider crab... does whatever a spider crab does.

It's an Arrow Crab - Not Reef Friendly! Thanks everyone. P.S. he's going bye bye!
