The Trouble with Hermit Crabs
I had two of the large kind --each the size of a child's fist. They were always fighting over shells but never saw any serious damage. They were actually quite entertaining. So I look behind the rocks, and one is eating something. I look closer and he is picking at a pile of hermit crabs claws, shell and other bits.

Re: The Trouble with Hermit Crabs
Are those by any chance the big hairy red hermits?
If so,they will do their best to catch and eat your fish.They are fun to watch though.
