Question New tank, live Rock, Full of hitchhiker crabs?

Hi everyone we're new to the hobby and this is our first tank. The tank has been running now for about 11 days. It's got quite a few crabs in it, I think they might be Gorilla's. What is the best way for trapping them/or getting rid of them? Are there any reef friendly fish or others that like crab for dinner? Preferably the first. Thanks.

Hey, welcome to canreef :-)

you could try placing a Winnie the Pooh drinking glass in there with some bait (shrimp) in the glass. They can usually get (fall) into the glass but can't get out!
