Hermit crabs with my GSP?
Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2020 12:03 pm
Hello! I am currently transitioning my GSP to full marine (his new 29 gallons will be a full marine setup and I will drip acclimate him).
Since it was full marine, I thought about putting something like blue leg hermit crabs for him. It will be for cleaning his tank, and his food to stimulate his hunting skills. Will it be ok? I will also mix empty shells around to confuse him.
I thought about purchasing at reef cleaners because they have them for fairly cheap.Are the shells too hard to the point that they can break the puffer's teeth? i don't want that to happen.
Also, I thought of purchasing other marine snails with him too. What are other good snail options?
**note: I am not feeding snails because I am cruel to them, it is because they can clean algae well and it will be able to make it seem like he is in "the wild"
