I don't think it's a good idea. I thought this was discussed here before and people said when your fish are sleeping it gives the crab time to nip and attack your fish.

Fiddler crabs need access to land and brackish water. They need kind of a "beach" set up. Lacking that, they would need platforms with land on them. The stores don't keep the fiddler crabs properly, and if they have them for any amount of time before you get them they are likely sick from stress.
