hermit crab

A new secretive species of hermit crab living in crevices shared with moray eels and flaming reef lobsters, has been discovered in the southern Caribbean. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/01/170126083612.htm

So, I was cleaning my fish tank out today and I accidentally knocked my rock that I had 5 itty bitty mushrooms on, needless to say they have all disappeared into my tank and I cannot find them. Do you think they will reappear by chance? I have no idea where they all floated off too, and I have...

this little guy came with my Decorator Crab. when i bought him i didn't notice it as it was closed up (looked like a little lump on his back). it has now detached itself from the crab and is crawling all over the tank. is this a good anenome? bad? i havent noticed him doing any damage yet. i...

I just changed out my GFO(BRS high capacity) and installed a UV sterilizer. Now I noticed hair algae starting to grow on the substrate. I did add 40 gallons to my system recently, so perhaps I just need to do some larger water changes. I cleared out my fuge of cheato and in 3 days it was full...

I just witnessed my orange spot goby assisting his shrimp in dumping the body of their latest victim outside their burrow... my poor emerald crab.

Ok so I just got home and found a hermit in the process of decimating a paly colony. I had been dealing with the loss of my sps recently as well. They all seemed fine then by the next day were nothing but skeletons. Could this hermit be responsible. The only thing else I found when I tested...

Tank been running for two month now, everything seem to be good. Me and the wife went to Reef Solutions on Van **** to check around and guest what she(wife found ) a blue saltwater lobster. Yup she wanted to buy it. The guy at Reef Solutions was very nice and very helpful. Here what I got.

So something in my tank is eating hermit crabs. Not that I mind, I have far too many from my clean up crew. They are defiantly not molts I'm finding. I have 2 chromis, 1 perc clown, a fire fish, a six line wrasse and a fox face for fish in the tank. Besides that I have the rest of the cuc and...

Good Morning All, This weekend I will be placing a clean up crew order with LiveAquaria.com. It is a build your own package, so I figured I would extend an offer to join in on the order. Obviously this is really only ideal for those local to the Clio, MI area or someone who passes nearby...

Auuuggghhh! I have had some little frags knocked down here and there, but today for about the 3rd time in 2 months someone knocked my acan (about 12 heads) down on his face again. I thought maybe the tang had been doing it, but now I suspect my overgrown hermit crabs. I put some empty shells...

I just saw my cleaner shrimp molt and a hermit crab give birth! I love watching my tank at night. Who needs sleep anyway lol. Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

Howdy everyone, This is my official first post, here it goes! :) I bought a yellow tang off a guy on craigslist. I've noticed that at night he gets this dark brown spot on him, then in the morning, after the lights have been on for a few, it goes away. Is this stress related? I don't have...

Hi I'm looking for some electric blue hermit crabs calcinus elegans. Anybody know of an lfs that has em?

Hey all, its been a while, how is everyone? Quick question, Im thinking about getting a few electric blue hermit crabs and was wondering if anybody has had any problems with them? I have a few smaller nassarius snails and I know hermits are known to kill them but since the blue ones are a little...

I didn't exactly know where to post this, but I thought it was worth sharing. I took over care of a 90g "look-through" at an extended-care facility where my wife is a nurse. It was badly neglected, to the point where the Korallia was choked to death by GHA. There were two bullies, yellow tang...

Still trying to figure out my hitchhikers and how to identify and when to know if it's a problem. I have several hermit crabs and occassionally they go dormant and appear to be empty shells, then they'll become active again. This time though, the shell I thought was dormant for nearly a week...
