No! Bad idea! Hermit crabs drown. Bad, bad idea! 

How To Keep Hermit Crabs
Keep them in a tank with moist, deep sand or eco earth and a shallow pool of both freshwater and ocean water.
Please visit www.hermit-crabs.com for good info on hermit crab care, as many pet stores and other websites do not give good or even valid information.

I've read a lot of things online, because I'm going to get a crab, and everything I've read says NOT to put a crab in amongst fish.

However, when I went to the store, they said it was okay to put the crab in the tank, as long as it can reach the air. 
So I guess you have to put something in the tank so they can get to the surface to breathe, because unlike fish, they don't have gills!  That's all I know, so hope it helped :D

No, hermit crabs live on land, and will drown in a fish-tank!
