No he fragged my colt in place, and did a good job fragging..., my zoos and mushrooms i don’t know where he found those... didn’t see any odd spots missing... I spent about 20 mins watching the night he was fragging my colt, he would pull a stalk back with one claw and use the other to trim it off, then stick it to himself.
my snails did/do more coral movage than he has (so far)

hey is this the same as a decorator crab,,, heres some info about it,,Three Hermit Crabs of the Dardanus sp. have formed a symbiotic relationship with the anemone Calliactis polypus with which it shares a home: D. pedunculatus (Indian Ocean), D. tinctor (Red Sea), and D. deformis (Great Barrier Reef).
The anemone attached to the shell provides camouflage, protection, and the two invertebrates share food. In the wild, when the crab moves the anemone about the reef, it helps the anemones disperse. When the crab outgrows its shell, it will leave it behind and find a new, larger shell and transfer the anemone on to it or select a larger anemone.
This Hermit Crab prefers an aquarium with large amounts of stable rock work and dim light. The Hermit Crab is aggressive and makes a poor candidate for a reef or peaceful fish aquarium. It will eat fish, snails, and worms, but also detritus and some algae. As it grows, it will need larger shells, therefore multiple sizes of gastropod shells should be available to it.
