The Blue Leg Hermit Crab, Clibanarius tricolor, features characteristic blue legs poking out of their shell. They are excellent scavengers and tank-cleaners that can help control algae and detritus and aerate sandy substrate. They are best housed in tanks with plenty of live rock and a sandy substrate. The Blue Leg Hermit Crab is reef safe, peaceful, and requires no care making it a risk-free and only beneficial addition to any home aquarium.

Arrived alive and well. Very small on arrival. Very active and friendly.

You just have to love these little guys, so active and pretty to look at. I consider them my little crew of janitors, busy cleaning up all the time. They are one of the first animals I put in my tanks when I set them up.
