Probably a hitchhiker like a stone crab.
Regardless of species, crabs aren't capable of cruelty- they don't understand what they're doing. Given the increasing evidence that crustaceans are capable of feeling pain, I think "kill pests humanely" is a very reasonable thing to say that people should do. It's also reasonable to get upset about someone killing an animal in an inhumane way, even if that animal is a pest. It's not the crab's fault you put it in your reef tank and then got mad when it did what it's supposed to do.

No disrespect, but does it look like he’s kidding?
