Arrow Crab, headed for trouble?

I’ve had trouble with my bristly worm population for a couple of months now. I’ve reduced fish food distribution amount, tried different traps (only caught a few) more water changes, and trying to keep the tank cleaner. When I told my LFS this they advised me to buy an arrow crab. I told them that I had a 29 gallon tank with lots of live rock, some coral, a few feather dusters, two snails, and one very territorial red clown fish (2 1/2″). They said that my clown and my other animals would be okay. But after reading about them, I am afraid that the crab will kill them all.
