my local fish store had a sale today and i got both of these for $5. I just didn't ask them for some reason what kind of crab it is , if it's fully submersible, is it reef safe , i just bought him cause i liked him which wasn't pretty smart. I also need help identifying the coral species. Any answers guys please. The crab is hiding and i really dont want to disturb him. So its a pretty tough pic to look at.

Crab is Ruby Red Mithrax Crab, reef safe and stays in water.
I'm almost positive that isn't a ruby mithrax crab. They don't have eye stalks like the one pictured here.
 
I think the crab is a red burrowing crab (reef safe also):
