Reason I hate hermits!
 

I came home today and saw my hemit taking a ride on my blade gorg! I got ride of most of my hermits since they always stepped over the zoas. Have one or two left in the tank and caught this one exercising by climbing the gorg :twised: Had to shake it off!

Didn't fire it just because no hurt was done on the gorg and it does a good job as custodian!

I hate those mushrooms more, they are taking over my tank.

I have had the same problem! I got him off and tossed him to the other side of the tank, did that for 2 days. If I catch him again it goes into the Fuge! :)

My mushrooms and gsp doesn't grow or anything; they just remain alive LOL so no complain against them :P

They are nuisance!

Give it time. Pretty soon your rock will be over run my gsp grew under my sand and all over the bottom glass in a period of a few months. tossed the rock in the dark of the sump 6 months ago and they are still alive with very little light.

I find it kinda cool. I'll pull a hermit out of a coral, move it 6 feet away, and a couple hours later, it's right back in the same spot. Repeat. :)

hermits are evil; I bought a bunch of pom pom crabs (sans pom poms) for cheapish that will hopefully fill their role ...

I love my blue and red legged hermits they add a lot of entertainment value to my tank only real bad thing I have with them is that they love to climb to top of my tank and sit on the rim

I have a long tentacles plate coral and if I had any hermit or shrimp that would pick at it, it would die very fast. They are fragile and any thear in their flesh can bring on a brown jelly infection and the death of the coral. For that reason I banned any crab from my aquarium except one emerald which never leave the liverock area and never try to pick at coral for food.
