But returning to the Staghorn hermit – talking about “supposed” to-be some thing ranging from an effective detritivore and a herbivore
Others meddle would be great. Your own largest question is staying this new red coral cap match, and and this is its not in fact an enthusiastic Acroporid Staghorn, however, a great deal more Hydrozoan or Bryozoan in the wild – way less demanding out of severe lights. I would only remain their typical serving regimen and all of commonly be good. It appears as though a small crawfish in the step one/2 to 3/cuatro inch long, it is a white grayish color which have enough time whiskers and claws a comparable proportions since the my Mexican red base hermits, these represent the exact same colour as the looks with purple towards the the guidelines of your own claws.
Myself, I really don’t very believe crabs of any sort, but these seem to be quite reef amicable
He could be interesting to view as i can also be figure out which opening they are of the, he is usually rebuilding the fresh new mountains before his exits, usually whatever you discover was a periodic claw otherwise whisker and you will numerous absolutely nothing bits of gravel being piled up at the front end of the holes he or she is generated. Any tip exactly what which curious nothing creature try, otherwise just what It’s worry means and reef being compatible was? Appears like don’t worry for the moment.
Hermit crab with anemones Hi Folks – fantastic site, I’ve been loitering around here for a couple of months digesting all the info I can – now I have a couple of questions I hope you can help me with. I have a huge hermit crab (around 2′” long) with two anemones on his shell. I have two questions. what type of anemones are these likely to be? They seem extremely hardy – getting buried in sand, squashed between the shell and the aquarium glass, and scraped along the rock whenever the crab crawls into one of the caves. I’ve had this combo for 3 months now, and the anemones are looking very healthy and growing at a pretty fast rate. Second question – my crab has changed shells 3 or 4 times since I’ve had him, and he always takes the anemones with him, I’ve never seen this happen but I’d love to know how this occurs. Does the crab move them over to the new shell, or does he just sit there and wait for them to move themselves? Any answers or more information on this curious combination would be greatly appreciated.
This interesting variety are renown having adorning the cover that have lifestyle anemones (some having Calliactis types)
Coral hermit I just bought a Staghorn hermit crab. not sure just what to call him. <> He mostly just sits about the tank watching the world go by. I would like to know if I am supposed to provide future homes for him. is he nocturnal? <> (He sits in the cave that belongs to the shrimp. it takes up about 1/4 of my 60 gal.) I have great water quality, and nothing that would bother him as all other hermits are smaller, and the fish are “peaceful” and small. Any other info on care and behavior would be great, as I noticed this crab is missing in your articles. <> thanks a lot <>
