My scoly i lifted it with 3 discs off the sand. And it still gets harassed by my hermits. I woke up to it super ticked off skeleton pinching the middle and i couldnt figure out why till i saw those hermit on top of it. What do i do!
Do i get rid of the hermits?

You could make a cage out of egg crate to protect it, however the hermits are either picking at it or trying to get food out of it or just trying to climb on it. I'd say the scoly is worth more than the hermits and removing them would be best, there are other scavenger/CUC options that you could use instead

SUMP THEM!
I feel my scolys health went to almost negative just because how constantly the hermit annoy it. I thought its my tanks issue at first. And then things started to escalate. But didnt realize they can do that much damage
