So, looks like I ran out of large enough shells for my hermits, they've left all the smaller shells behind, and I saw two of them fighting a few days ago, literally pulling one another out of their shells.
Well now, I have one hermit without a shell, he's wedged himself in a nook of my liverock and refuses to expose himself, he sits there filtering any food that comes his way, with his claws extended. (Hermits are quite ugly and interesting created without their shells I've found... their bodies are contorted in such akward angles.)
Anyway, I plan on getting some larger shells tomorrow, but how will I get him to find the new shells if he refuse to leave his little nook in the rock? Do I risk injuring him if I force him out? (His body looks extremely soft...)
