FuEl Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Check this hermit out. Black body with yellow spots. So far been behaving, lost no fish nor corals to them yet. They seem to be content grazing on algae. Smaller than the blue legged hermit.

FuEl Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 Nah..different individual. I got a few. Speaking of them...anyone kind enough to help me identify them? I can't find any matching species.. Quote Always something more important than fish. http://reefbuilders.com/2012/03/08/sps-pico-reef/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member mUAr_cHEe Posted January 10, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted January 10, 2006 If you can not find out, what makes you think we can?? Would be glad to help you, but overseas at the moment, my big ID book at home. Quote *translated from Hokkien* "If say no bang wall, this idiot will never ripen" - Mr Quah Siew Kow.

FuEl Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 Apparently I think I managed to secure Trizopagurus magnificus. Native to Sea of Cortez. Also featured in Crustacea of the World by Helmut Debelius, page 232. http://baja.divebums.com/FieldID/Pages/tri...magnificus.html Apparently a hermit species rare in the trade. 100% reef safe. Best thing is..I get them from a location not previously reported. Apparently part of the population migrated.
