I bought a red reef crab from Petco, threw it in my DT and it is pretty awesome. It burrows sometimes, walks around a lot, is a pretty entertaining guy. He does hide in the day time.

I've googled this guy to death, can't really find what he is. I did find this link and this is definitely the crab I have:

It says he needs to come out of the water at times, but at Petco he was completely underwater.

What should I do? He's a beauty, I'd like to keep him if possible.

Will this guy survive if he can't get out of the water?

In nature they are more out of the water than in the water so I can't really say.
