I totally agree that this is a different question to the other one. But rock crabs, despite their obvious name, are actually fine with sea water, but they need to breathe a little once in a while. They swim in the water-never in the middle of the ocean, unless swept away by a wave-and always land back onto the underside of a rock, that is submerged halfway or wholeway out of the water. Whatever the place, they need to be near land, or preferably rocks.

Yes, crabs can live in canal water, provided the water is brackish or has suitable salinity levels.
