Obtained from the ocean (LR, mud superstars, hermits

Steven Professional, Will you be about Philippines? It will not stink but it has the aroma of a rock regarding the ocean (hehe definitely this is where they came from). Whether it will not stink create We still need to cure it? I must say i want to get certain for my personal tank however, I have no idea if this can be live on my personal base gravel because this isn’t sand therefore i don’t capture one having now. Does it survive my bottom pebbles even if it is significantly less fine due to the fact mud just what it was used as well? But I’m not sure if they are reef safe. However, I will not look for such hermit crabs on your own crabs web site.

Just two of are usually indeed there as they are maybe not reef secure. The remainder enjoys black feet which have silver areas with purple (perhaps maroon) antennae and two blue nothing antennae. Will they be reef safe also? They don’t order sign up for. They all have to eat something. It is only a question of if i worth what they consume. They’ll consume things they come round the they can consume easily. In the event the meals is plentiful, they may hop out your own snails by yourself. For those who behavior an excellent husbandry and don’t enjoys pain in the neck algae and you can uneaten food almost everywhere, their crabs will end up eager and you may make use of other prey products. I desired when planning on taking the latest stone together with shrimp, however, We actually have a great banded red coral shrimp hence whenever i include some other shrimp of the identical kinds they may struggle.

It is actually eg a rock ranch

I didn’t remember that such shrimps including are now living in very low waters regarding merely step three feet strong. I must say i need to get back here and just have particular even more stones and some invertebrates. And so are free! We.) Thus all hermit crabs may not be reef safe except if given securely? Villagers along with manage such rocks and sell them to different LFS within the new Philippines. If not desire the situation from meeting rocks you can purchase they truth be told there. But if you wanted totally free simply get the individual for free and they you should never brain. It will be uncommon for your authorities to not have specific version of controls set up.

There is a little LFS indeed there you to definitely offer fishes, corals, invertebrates, and you may alive material

Hermit Crab Hello those who couldn’t make it to MACNA. swapfinder kortingscode <> 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

Red Slime Algae Hi Bob, Haven’t written in quite some time. I have a case of Red Slime Algae. I’ve neglected my tank over the summer (I’ve been a bad boy) and now I’m going to remedy it through large water changes every week. I know what needs to be done, but I’ve seen claims from a few “sellers” that Red Leg Hermits eat red slime algae. Have you ever seen this? Thanks, Tony
