Blue Eyed Hermit Crab

Hermit crabs need to live inside of a snail shell in order to keep their soft bodies safe. Even with many shells available hermit crabs will occasionally kill snails in order to take their shell. Please ask our staff and we will be happy to supply you with some empty shells.

This crab has earthy colored claws and bright baby blue eyes. It is an opportunistic omnivore and may eat corals, fish food, detritus, algae and more.
