That's like going from the frying pan into the fire.They will tromp all over everything too, won't leave any damage for the most part but will rob any LPS you are target feeding. I have no crabs or shrimp and only about five snails just feed less and you won't have a problem. As far as brittle stars go I have a Brown Banded that won't eat meaty products but the red/pink one I had worked really well.

ALL crabs are evil...
