Hi everyone!
I recently bought some cerith snails to add to my CUC, and noticed soon after that this little guy was a stowaway (snail murderer!) Anyway, I have looked high and low on the internet to see about a pale gray/white saltwater hermit crab and have been unable to find any that look like him… does anyone have any idea what little critter has joined my tank? He is behaving like my other hermits and appears to love algae, but just want to make sure I don’t need to remove him if he is known to eat corals or anything of that nature… Is there such a thing as an albino hermit crab?
