The Blue Leg Hermit Crab (Clibanarius tricolor) is a nice addition to any saltwater reef tank because it is extremely good detritus eater and will aid in the removal of excess food, waste and algae from your home aquarium.
Blue Leg Hermit Crabs also eats cyano bacteria aka red slime algae aka blue green algae. Blue Leg Hermits scavenge the tank for food, algae and more. They will often fight for food as well as new homes (in the form of available shells). Providing extra shells for your hermits is always advised
