When bulking is it more important to get more carbs or protein (as long as you hit your 1-1.5g/lbm) for building muscle?
Please don't flame!!!!

Technically and very generally speaking once protein and fat has been set the entire surplus should be from crabs.
Those with crab tolerance issues or just low crab requirements may need to lower crabs and raise their fats instead.
And of course just exactly where you set your fat and protein intakes is also a matter of personal preference and needs, and would thus also effect how many crabs you eat.
And finally when the surplus is small people report no ill effects from making the surplus come evenly from all 3 macroz.

It's a range of intake that's generally from 0.45 grams up to 1 gram per pound of bodyweight, with many people doing well at the lower end of the range and some people, especially those with metabolic syndrom, doing well at the higher end of the range. Usually, those with higher dietary fat intake are those that need much lower carb intake.

I'm not currently, though I have used a TKD protocol in the past.
Currently, my CHO intake is about 120 grams (which keeps my out of ketosis), with fat intake in excess of 200 grams and protein intake just below 200 grams. At that intake, my weight is stable.
I'm simply someone who performs better with higher fat intake. Most people seem to perform better with higher CHO intake, but a significant minority of the population react favorably to (relatively) high fat intake.

Metabolic syndrome is a name for a group of risk factors that occur together and increase the risk for coronary artery disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0004546/
