Hermit

This is one of the blue-legged hermit crabs I added this past weekend. The blue coralline algae has colored up nicely. If you look just to the left of the hermit crab, there is a little red tuft--it is a tube worm of some kind. They extend little fans out of the tube to catch particles of food floating by.

I just noticed, there are actually 2 hermit crabs in the photo. The other one is in the bottom left corner.
