I'd be pretty confident with the Id off RC. The lack of the fourth set of visible legs means it isn't a true crab. The large claws in porcelains are used for defense and territory disputes, rather than catching food. That bring said, if there was more than one of these guys in the tank the crab parts could be a result of intra or inter-species conflict...or maybe it's just molt?
