Finally found him!! Hitchhiker Crab ID please

I've only ever seen his big black claws (with white tips) poke out to grab a pellet or some hair algae twice in the year that I've had the tank going. I'm not sure if this is his body or just a moult so I figured I should get some input. The closest ID I've found is a Xanthid Crab but it seems quite similar to an Emerald. Any ideas?
