will hermit crabs breed in tank

[saltjunky]

I was looking at the tank before the attics went out for the day was watching the sand bead and all the pods I have crawling around there to check pop. saw one of my hermits just sitting there looked on at coral above it then noticed the hermit all I can say is looked like it was having a spasum and well little white specks started coming out and swimming did that for like three min. fish had a filed day on them this is the third time in the last 2 weeks that I have seen the white specks swimming but first time I have seen what has let them out so I want to ask is this hermits breading I only have between 6-8 brown leg and one blue leg

^agreed. Bump. I've read about Hermits laying eggs, larvae hatching but none of them ever making it. These were articles or forum posts from years ago, anyone have recent experience of this?
