I have some scarlet reef hermits in quarantine and will be quarantining some dwarf blue legs soon. What size shells should I order for them?
 
This is a difficult question. I've ordered several different size hermit crab shells and none of these seem to suit my little guys with black and white legs (came in as "Hawaiian miniature hermit crabs). Of course the shells they came in on spiral the opposite direction so that may be a problem. They do spend a lot of time checking out the shells, though. I think they may want to move up but nothing I've put in the tank suits.
