Janitor Hermit Crab (Calcinus sp.)

The Janitor Hermit Crab is a robust, larger-bodied utility species engineered for heavy-duty tank maintenance. Known for its industrious work ethic, this hardy crab acts as an efficient scavenger that targets larger pockets of decomposing organic matter, uneaten fish meals, and stubborn patches of algae. While generally peaceful, ensuring a steady supply of empty shells of various sizes is highly recommended to accommodate their growth and prevent territory disputes with neighboring snails.
