Any chance at taking it back where you found it? Depending on the crab, it could have requirements that you'll never be able to meet.
Can you post a photo of the crab, or find a photo online that looks just like it?

Is it a standard crab or a hermit crab.

My question is why would you take anything off of a beach and put it into your tank, not knowing what it would do to things in your tank, and not knowing what it needs to survive, or anything like that?
Many would tell you never to remove something live from a beach and put it into your tank. Honestly, I think I smell a troll.
