Micro Hermits???

[stephencraig]

I have heard of reefers having and replacing the clean up crew with "Micro Hermits", but I haven't been able to find much info on them. Are these certain species of hermits that are small (1/4" - 1/2") and STAY small? Or are they simply species like the Blue Leg Hermit that start small but will eventually get larger? If they are truly Micro Hermit crabs, does anyone know where I can get them (online)?

I just put 30 in my 29g biocube. They are blue leg hermits but they are extremely extremely small. They will get bigger, but by then I will have already replaced them with new small ones.

I bought some "Dwarf Blue Leg Hermits" a few months ago. Turns out they were just babies. Careful about the term "dwarf".
