Dwarf Zebra/Orange & Black Hermit Crab (Calcinus laevimanus) SOFTIES Generally compatible with most reefThe Calcinus laevimanus hermit crab is an active, hardy cleanup crew member that helps keep your aquarium tidy by scavenging leftover food and grazing on film algae. It spends the day cruising the rockwork and sandbed, picking at detritus and algae in places snails may miss. Like all hermit crabs, it will upgrade shells as it grows, so providing extra empty shells is key for long term success and helps reduce snail harassment. Why we love it Great
