Isolate the crab in good conditions with the rest of it's exo. That is literally all you need to do. Once the crab has finished eating it's shed and hardens up, and it is walking around, it can go back into the main tank.

ok so i isolated him unburied him and he looked right at me with his beedy little eyes.
hes very bright red and looks as if hes hardened pretty good. what i did was took a small tuperware and cover it over him (but enough to let in air too)
the other guys are down molting now i have found their tunnels so im not worried too much about him being attacked. his exo does appear to be pretty well eaten only a claw, and one piece of leg and its very crunchy. I really hope hes ok. My other 2 crabs baja and pitch are in my 20 gallon, so all thje molters are basically isolated in a 10 gallon at the moment, until this is all done, than i can begin a new tank set up.
i hope hes ok
only one little guy out at the moment.
