I don't think that hermit crabs will have any effect on pod populations. I think they are too hard for the hermits to catch.

I think hermit crabs will decimate a pod population, since the crabs and pods are most active at night.
You could be right. I just thought that they could reach into some of the
nooks and cranies in the rock and pinch some out. It just seems that whenever
I have a higher crab population, the pods are much less noticible when the
lights come on. But it could just be that the pods hide more when they sense
more crabs around? Does that make any sense? Maybe I should just stop typing now.
