stevenkoh08 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 ya i do have the same one in the pic think it bout 1.5inch now hiding in my rock can't really see it now. but once awhile i see it shell means it changing it shell kind of brown/red strip right? If so it the same. i don't think it'll kill ur hermit crab more like ur pistol shrimp will be the culprit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
