In one night this bastard decimated my ricordias. He's killed a couple of chromis and my pajama cardinal. My female pajama cardinal isn't looking good. Boodied tail fin.

Give him to someone with triggers and puffers or just dump him in the sump?

I'd go with the triggers/puffers route. If he's done that much damage I wouldn't want him near the tank, even in the sump. They're crafty little buggers...

He's apparently a Gorilla crab.

Feed him to a mantis, I've been trying to catch a crab that looks similiar to him although that one feeds on algae at the moment when he gets bigger he will go for more stuff.

Agree. Skewer & puffer treat.
Hopefully that person doesn't lose him in the sump and it ends up in his display.
