I woke up to find that my crab had one of its claws off. Not sure if it was ripped off or fell off. Take a look at what is in my tank cause I don't think anything in there would do that. Any suggestions? It is not any type of molt cause the arm on the crab is completely gone an the cleaner shrimp was digging in.
 
Could be anything, but most likely he got into a crevice and got his claw stuck. They would rather lose it then die of starvation because he can't get to food.
