but are they safe together or should i stick to one species? Also, I add new hermits to my tank that currently house larger hermits, will that be a problem?
I find is hilarious when my hermit crabs get into tiny battles! In the picture two blue crabs are fighting a red crab over his new luxurious larger shell. The sand sifting sea star doesn't know what to make of it!
Halloween hermits prefer to only go in cone or triton shells. So they are pretty safe as far as harassing other hermits go (Except for other halloween hermits).
Hermits kill one another for shells and will kill snails for the same reason. I had about 12 hermits in my 29 gallon and I'm down to about 5 after a year... all deaths from each other.
