#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Picked up some hermit crabs today at the LFS, asked her to get me 3 blue legged hermits. When I got home, and when they came out, i noticed only 1 was blue legged. The other 2 were white and black, like zebra stripes.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#After searching on the web, I found out that it is a Calcinus seurati type hermit crab. I am however unable to find out any info about him. Is he just a different color variation fom the blue legged or a different species altogether? And what does/doesn't he eat?#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Below are some pics, the first is of my crab, the second is a much better pic I found online.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#IMG src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a62/pass1over/blackwhite_hermit.jpg"#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#IMG src="http://users.skynet.be/fa311324/article/hermit/Calcinus%20seurati.jpeg"#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#its whats called a zebra leged hermit...I have one they are predomintaly scavengers but may need supplements if there is not enough to scavenge. They generaly are small and will grow to about 1 to 1.5 inches. You shouldent have any trouble with them their about te same as the blue leg hermits.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#tigersax7#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
