In order for an alien species to reach the same technological level as humans would they need to look similar to us? limbs to manipulate the environment and tools, an expressive face or equivalent in order to form social groups, eyes and ears or equivalent to experience the world. I can't imagine a crab like species ever becoming advanced.
