This is not a hitchhiker, I did that to get views because no one was viewing my other post. What kind of Hermit Crab is this? Is it an Albino Hermit maybe? I found pics of white hermit crabs on the internet, but nothing like the one I got. I got it straight out of the gulf since I live near the beach.

That was sneaky.
And idk but beware of introducing parasites into your tank from wild animals.
Nice looking hermit
 
Really? You have the same hermit? It looks almost translucent like mine? Could you send me a pic of it.
 
Yeah, I didnt wanna have to be sneaky but I saw that my thread only had like 30 something views, and someone who posted "What kind of hitchhiker is this?" And it got like 500 it was posted the same day as mine.
 
It looks really mad. Don't get in his way! Anyways, most fish in saltwater are wild, but they have been qt before. You shouldn't have just put it in, even though I've done the same thing with a decorator crab I caught, and a really cool red hermit crab I found LOL
 
Yeah I keep hearing now that I shouldn't have just put things I caught in the wild in the tank. But I just took my chances. I only had my tank about 3 months, I'm still learning.
