Harmful bugs?

Hi, can anyone tell me what these are, if they are harmful, and how to get rid of them? I did dip both my guys that I see in salt water.

It’s the “fuzzy looking thing

Hi! All crabs have them, it's their setae (I call them their fluffs lol). Here's an explanation:

It's just a little clump of the "hairs". Some of my guys have bigger fluff clumps than others.
