any thoughts on dwarf blue leg/red leg/zebra hermit crabs for a reef
tank? i have a red hair algae battle going on --right now kinda at a
stalemate. it has not taken over the tank but i want to prevent it.
btw tank has leathers,muhrooms,star polyps,bubble coral,hammer
coral--do crabs pose any risk

I have some red striped hermits, they chow down on my green and red hair
algae, and bubble too.

Red leg hermits. They won't mess with any snails you may have.
