2 Chestnut Cowrie snails, and 2 blue legged hermit crabs for my cleaning crew. Anything I need to look for or just sit back and enjoy?

That would make 6 snails, and 3 hermit crabs all together now.:D
 
Go to your LFS and pickup some empty shells.
Those hermits will grow and look for alternate homes (shells).
If there aren't any, they will just die a painfully embarrassing naked death.
 
My hermits just kill each other. :grumble: Can't wait until they are all dead. Worthless little buggers.. When all my hermits are dead, I ain't having anything but emeralds in my tanks from that point.
 
Never seen a hermit take a cowrie shell?? I guess it's possible though, but it would have to be HUGE!

I agree RC. I'm down to one blue & one scarlet hermit. I am sticking with the snails too. I have a handful of Nassarius snails, Astraea snails & Ceriths.
 
I would say you can sit back and enjoy a bit... But I would also say that your kinda lacking as far as cleanup crew goes..... Like really lacking in it. You need more snails. Get some more cerith and astraea snails. Like I would probably stock at least 50 snails.
