Anyone can ID?

Found this yesterday night.

Is it Safe to leave in my tank?

Last listed as apple crab by former National Museum. Common around offshore areas near hard plate corals, semi-dense growth of caulerpas and our artificially created breakwater barriers. Like most reef crabs, it will rescape your tank for u n help create more swimming space for the existing fish community when given the chance.
