Hermits hangin' out at the front...
 
Is it normal to have 20+ hermits burying themselves in the sand in the front of your tank? I got 50 blue legs the day of the big meet and about 20 of them have never left the front of the tank. They just sit there half buried up against the glass. I know they're alive as i can see them moving but they just sit there. Is this normal?

Reef orgy. Mine used to do that all the time. :razz:

I hope u guys are right, but I don't think they're having an orgy since they're not interacting with each other. They just sit there wiggling their whiskers.

Soon I'm gonna come home to a puddle on the carpet and a long string of algae threaded together hanging from the tank.

:lol: :biggrin:
Is this area a mellow flow location, as some of my hermits use to get together near the base of the basket of my old powerhead. Here I think they would feast on washed up uneaten fish food.

Or maybe Christy's right, sounds like one hell of a party :mrgreen:
