    It will be a Porcelain Crab then

    these crabs have a pair of front arms called maxillipeds I think which have ends that are feather-like in appearance they use these to filter the water for any passing food that come there way....and they are peaceful.....so looks like you may have a freebie there

    I had another look at the video of it and can just see the front pair of feather arms.
