I'm almost sure that my tiny (maybe red legged) hermit crabs are eating the coralline algae off my rocks. I had some nice purple patches developing on my dry rock and now they're completely white. I noticed last night that three crabs were all clustered around one little dot of purple.
Also, they're useless for eating green hair algae. If I can find someone to take them off my hands, I think they're going to be evicted from my tank.
Has anyone else had their hermits eat or scrape off coralline algae?
