Steven Professional, Will you be regarding the Philippines? It doesn’t stink nevertheless has the scent of a rock out-of the ocean (hehe of course and here it originated in). If it will not stink would We still have to dump it? I must say i would like to get particular to have my container but We do not know in the event it can go on my personal bottom gravel because the this is simply not sand thus i did not just take people to have now. Will it go on my personal bottom pebbles regardless if it’s less okay just like the sand just what it was applied too? However, I don’t know if they are reef secure. But I am able to perhaps not get a hold of this type of hermit crabs in your crabs site.

Simply two of them are indeed there and they are perhaps not reef safer. The rest has black colored foot that have silver spots which have purple (possibly maroon) antennae and two bluish little antennae. Are they reef safe too? They will not order sign up for. They all need certainly to eat something. It is simply an issue of whether i really worth whatever they eat. Might eat some thing they arrive round the they can consume effortlessly. In the event that meals is abundant, they may get off their snails alone. For folks who routine a beneficial husbandry and don’t provides annoyance algae and uneaten dinner every-where, their crabs will become eager and use other victim points. I desired when planning on taking the newest rock and also the shrimp, but We curently have a great banded coral shrimp hence when i create some other shrimp of the same types they could challenge.

It really is for example a stone farm

I didn’t be aware that these types of shrimps including reside in extremely low seas about just step 3 feet deep. I truly need to go back indeed there and also have specific extra rocks and several invertebrates. And generally are totally free! We.) Thus every hermit crabs might not be reef safer unless of course fed securely? Villagers in addition to look after such stones market them to additional LFS in new Philippines. Or even want to have the difficulty out of meeting stones you can get it truth be told there. But when you need totally free merely get your very own free of charge and so they do not brain. It will be strange when it comes to regulators to not have particular version of control in position.

There’s a little LFS around that offer fishes, corals, invertebrates, and real time material

Hermit Crab Hello those who couldn’t make it to MACNA. <> One of my (saltwater) hermit crabs was upside down in his shell looks for something like a few days and now his claws are missing. It looks like he only has two legs right now and is definitely unable to move with his huge shell (he got greedy in getting a new home). What should I do with him until he can grow he claws back, which I am assuming will take a few molts at least? Would it be better if I keep him in the main tank, the sump/refugium <>, or quarantine tank?? How should I feed him, or at least he has access to food?? <> Thanks, Kim
