Alexraptor Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 This sucker hermit was sold to me as a blue legged, but it certainly dosent look like a blue legged now, ive been having problems with bare patches forming on my previously aiptasia infested Zoa colony, i found the hermit now tonight munching away on the rock, and i have seem him on the very colony a few nights ago. Are there hermits that in fact do feed of zoo's, and wich species might these be? hard to get a pic for good ID but he has red antennaes, mouthparts similar to blue legs, but his legs are greenish more and vertically striped.

Sea Slug Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Sounds like you got duped into buying a crab that is not a Blue Leg , GET RID OF HIM NOW ! Before he eats whats left of your coral . Link to comment
Alexraptor Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 crab proven innocent, decline continued and the symptoms of the colony points towards a bacterial infection. so i performed a FW dip and removed any dead polyps, damn Aiptasia. Link to comment
