Is there any type of cleanup crew available that a Queen Triggerfish will not simply sample to death? My Queen is 5". If I buy a football sized hermit crab might that work?

I have been looking at the same problem. My queen is around 12 inches. I have seen hermit crabs the size of one's fist, but I'm thinking she will think this is a snack.

Yeah. Thanks for the reply. I found a place locally that can get football sized Hermit crabs. But your Queen is 12", and well on it's way to being the only fish in the tank. Mine is only 5". She tried to eat a tennisball size hermit yesterday. It was said that owners of Queen's many times have to do the clean up work themselves. There has to be a way around that. But they do sell Hermit Crabs 1 foot in length. But Queen Triggers are strong fish, and it might be unphased by a large hermit. I'll keep you posted if I find success with anything.
