Bad Hermit???

[Myka]

Not sure which species it is, but it's not a Scarlet. I wouldn't let him in my reef, but that's not to say he may be perfectly safe. Peeling doesn't sound like damage caused by him, rather he's eating the dying tissue.

Tough to say what happened to the coral. I know my hermits will eat the dead flesh as Myka stated.

It's strange I've only ever bought blue legged and Scarlets. He must have somehow slipped into one of my buys. Either way he's gone now.

My blues didn't last! I think my angels ate them, but still have all my red tipped.
