They are Sand Crab...already they are appeared on Project Noah..
Atul, thank you. I looked it up a while ago, and it came up as a red crab in India...which made no sense to me, but I'm not from India, nor do I know anything about the country. So, I posted what I found. I was hoping someone who knew would explain.
it is a ghost crab Heather
