I think its an acropora crab but not sure what to do with it, maybe flush it?

Not sure my tank has enough to feed it without it not killing something

Does it have a black line in front of its head? If so those are supposed to be ok. I have a white-ish Acropora crab and it has this line, no worries at all.

I think its one of the good kinds of crabs that in a well established sps tank or ocean it would be harmless sort of speak.

I am trying to get the hang of sps so I put him in the sump.

I intentionally purchased a brown sps coral from Max Reefs, the polyps still extend but it was not doing well. I purchased it to gauge myself on sps keeping, I shall try to nurse it back to health and bring its coloration back.
Due to this little experiment I did not want the crab eating polyps and me not knowing if i could not nurse the sps coral back to good health due to say maybe the crab eating more then he should have.

he is somewhere in the sump now.
