I recently cleaned out my 12 gallon tank and found these 2 crabs.

Should I put them back in the tank?

I wouldnt. The first one, while hard to make out its claw structures might be a cling crab while the second one is without a doubt a xanthid species, both of which can be or become very destructive.
