2 Spotted Hermit Crabs (White Spotted Hermit Crabs?)
Very cool crab,awesome to watch,terrific sand sifters but total bulldozers and very much predators.
They are about the size of golf balls and ready for bigger shells.
Free for pick-up in Beddington,or I will deliver in exchange for a frag.
The Spotted Hermit Crab is a large, hairy, ornamental crab for community fish-only aquariums with large fish. They eat mainly meaty foods but will occasionally eat macroalgae. They are not reef safe but will do well with large fish like angels and tangs. This crabs brilliant orange legs are adorned with small white polka dots.
I never had a issue with them as far as being 'reef safe' but they are great at knocking stuff over.I did catch them eating a Algae Blenny once but I'm not sure if it died on it's own or they caught it.I do believe they are capable of catching fish.
