There is a spider in my cricket house?!?

This afternoon I set up a breeding house for crickets. Its an old fishtank, about 60cm high and 40 cm wide. In the centre is a tower of egg cartons and I put fresh soil in the bottom. They have food and water and a heat source, I put in about 100 crickets, mostly babies, only 1 or 2 adults. I just checked on them and saw a spider - a common house spider about the size of my thumbnail. Is the spider going to eat them all or do I have a few days to fish it out?

    The spider will eat them, so you need to get rid of it.
