Found this molt recently while cleaning my tank, I have an emerald crab or two in there but fairly sure this looks like a gorilla crab, any second opinions would be great!

Hairy legs and black tipped claws is what most people go by to tell if it's a gorilla crab. The claw shape is another way to tell. I would assume you have a gorilla crab looking at that molt.
 
Good luck on finding it!
 
Sure looks like one to me. I would get a bottle or similar trap setup sooner than later.
 
Thank you everyone! I figured as much, guess I’ll be on the hunt now!
