Description: Dwarf Blue Leg hermit crabs are one of the most popular scavengers in the aquarium trade. Known for their small size, beautiful colors and excellent reef compatibility, they are able to reach tight crevices and polish off the detritus and algae that bigger inverts cannot get to. They will scour the sand and live rock in search of food and leave the tank virtually nitrate-free. They make excellent tank cleaners and a great addition to your clean-up crew. They have bright blue striped legs with orange antennas
Food and diet: The Dwarf Blue Leg Reef Hermit Crab is best kept in a reef-style aquarium where it will have ample supplies of algae to eat. If there is insufficient algae to eat, their diet must be supplemented with dried seaweed
