You could try the invertebrate forum for that beast. I have no ideas.

Nah it was wedged in between the glass and the rock behind it.
 I fixed that though so he has room to move through there now without getting stuck. |

Yeah he's my prize crab. Knowing now that he's relatively scarce in the trade I got him for a bargain price ($2.50). Bet I could ebay him for $25 or more.
