I thought I bought a blue legged hermit crab, but when I got him home, he's not a blue leg. Are there any hermit crabs that are NOT reef safe.
I dont have any coral yet, but will be getting some.

Yes there are but the ones that are not reef safe are very large, Golf ball sized. There are others that are pretty aggressive with snails but they shouldn't bother your coral.

Yeah there are all types of hermits but most of the ones I have had even the large ones don't mess with corals other than walking across them every once in a while.
