Zebra Hermit, Blue Leg Hermit and Red Leg Hermit

[assafelbaz]

Hi.

I had one blue leg hermit crab in my tank and 3 red leg ones.
Today i bought 2 more of the red leg ones, just bigger, and 2 zebra ones.
One of the zebra's got to a small fight with the blue one.

What i am asking is, do they can live together all of these hermit types or not?
One more question. Are they all reef safe?

Thank you.

They should all be reef safe, but they are fighting over the shells. I would add lots of empty shells to the tank to cut down on hermit crab aggression

Cheers :Cheers: and Thank You!!!

What about snails, are they snail safe too?

Depends on the individual, some crabs will ignore them, others will kill them for their shell and others kill them simply for the fun of it

I hope mine will be peaceful!
