Hitchhiker, yellow goby went mia idk if this guy is the culprit or my goby is level expert at hiding. He will be anemone food either way just curious what it was ! Had some black around the claws

Emerald crab, can be good if there is algae to eat or leftover food.

Looks like a stone crab to me. Need to see his claws but if it is, that is where your goby went. Emerald crabs are mostly green. Stone crabs are more orange with black tips on their claws. They are night time hunters and will get your fish while they are sleeping.

Doesn't matter as long as you didn't release him back into your tank.
