For some reason this picture makes me laugh. This hermit tried for about 30 minutes to flip himself over, every time a fish zoomed by he sucked back into his shell so he didnt get much of a chance. Eventually he made it.

did you sit in front of the tank the whole time watching him struggle?
Nah, although I've never reached into my tank to flip hermit crabs back on their feet, they always do just fine by themselves and I really try hard not to put my hands into the water unless needed.
He just was on his back when I sat down at the PC next to my tank and I looked over after browsing RC which took about half an hour and he was still there, looking comical. So I grabbed my camera, took a shot and pretty soon afterward he managed to right himself.
