Best place for crabs.

Other then the corner of Cicero and 22nd. Who has got the best prices on inverts? Blue leg hermits, scarlet hermits, etc. Online or LFS, either one. Im guessing online will be cheaper. Thanks.

Cancun!?! LOL, I like the way u beet everyone to the punch. I'd have to say reefs2go as well.

yeah....that was quite an easy setup there...

I would suggest getting some porcelain crabs. They are very fun to watch and they do amazing in reef tanks. Peaceful and do great in pairs. I have one and love him.

OK Whats the catch? If I buy 100 blue leg hermits on Reefs2go, they are only .16 each? Do they only have one leg and no claw? Do I have to supply the shell?

Also, hows their livestock? $29 for a flame angel seems like a real good price.

PIGuy. If you're going to order from Reefs2go, let me know as they have a couple items I'd like to order (want some more copepods and ampipods)

 

[casualreefer]

they are small crabs but IMO those are the beat to buy cause they get in tiny places where detrius builds up and big crabs can't get to.

 

[johnatan2007]

group buy from reefs2go, yes? id also like some hermit crabs

Lincolnwood is a bit out of my wheelhouse.

 

[mystery_reef]

personally i dont like blue legs but they are the cheapest and most available.

I switched most of my crabs out for scarlets. Since doing so, I have not had the problem of killed snails or my scarlets. Before I made the switch, I had a mixture of crabs it seemed the zebra crabs were always killing my scarlets.

If you keep blues, be sure you have no snails or they will. Generally at that price, they are about 1/4" or smaller.

I never heard this, Is this your experience/opinion, or did you read this somewhere?
Just wondering.
