Very nice, very round ocelli!

What's with the snail with legs though?

Thanks for all the replies!

Snail with legs? the second pic was taken right after Chubby hit the snail, so it is suspended in the water a little, if thats what you mean.

Correct, although i may try to feed hermits at some time in the future. can hermits survive in a SG of 1.008? But im not sure it matters if there gonna be food! Can hermits hurt my puff?

Hermits usually can stand the lowest of 1.014 in my experience of trying to acclimate them to brackish.

Hermits are more of a passive critter, they don't attack anything :)
