so i might be missing one or two, im not even sure how. One of them i saw leave his shell to enter a new one, but i came back a day later and both shells are empty and hes missing :-(
i had 5, since day 1 of finished cycle. I have snails and shrimp also. Would i eventually have to replace my hermit crabs if im down to 2? they honestly do a lot of work, eat all day and night
my cuc looks like this
5 hermit crabs(possible 3 now)
2 super nass snails
1 tiger conch
2 nerite
1 peppermint
i also have a tiger pistol but im not sure if hes considered CUC. I feel like there is just the perfect amount of cleaning right now, not too dirty but dirty enough to notice. But also enough to know my cuc is getting food. I just heard one or two times that hermit crabs are literally useless, as in you can just be good with snails, any truth to that? what does a hermit crab do that makes him useful compared to other cuc
