Are inverts immune to coral sings?
My cleanner and hermits are always crawling near or on the FS and the favia.
%%
Also one of my hermits went through a bad molt! Its legg still has the molt handing off it and one of its claws is missing. What could have caused this? My clown seems to be trying to get at it now also? Can the hermit be to stressed or dieing?

No I did not! Also this hermit keeps going on my favia and FS(saw him nip at it once)
Should I be worried? Should I cook the hermit?

halloween, its the one with the messed up molt. Should I rip off the molt thats hanging off its legg? Or leave it and see what happens.

Both of my hermits beeline to any new coral I put in the tank and spend a good amount of time picking and searching it over. After the initial inspection time they usually leave them alone so I wouldn't start the crab boil just yet

He just seems to like to chill on the favia! I've been watchinf him and he hasnt picked at it yet just hangs out on it. Does this hurt the coral at all?

Not to my knowledge it doesn't, one of mine sleeps (well I guess its sleeping) on the rock that our small yellow zoa is attached to. He just walks up on the rock gets right up against the zoa and doesn't move for hours, hes generally there shortly after the lights go off and stays there till at least mid morning. I have no idea why he likes that spot but its not hurt the coral thus far so

Oh thats sounds like what mine is doing. It's only moved slightly the past 3 hours.
Now I just noticed that I have some sort of worm or soemthing sticking out of a rock. It's tube like and has almost spike like things sticking out of the top. Its not a feather,fan, ect. I tried to grab it with my tweezers but it retracted back into its hole, and now is out once again! I noticed him lastnight also in the same spot. I'll draw a pic in paint of how it looks since my cam wont get a shot of it.
