Any one know what this guy is?

Did he come in on live rock?

If so: where did the live rock come from?

Look like ghost crab (Ocypode cordimanus).

Welcome to Reef2Reef! It does kind of look like a ghost crab to me too. Could've come in with your rock or sand.

Yeah I concur. It seems like some sort of shore crab based on the eye stalks and leg configuration. They require a place where they can get out of the water if you want to keep him alive.
