I have Lunar, bluehead, false Christmass Wrasse and green Coris wrasse. I would like to add Red Leg Reef Hermit Crabs to the tank. I was told that wrasse would eat crustacean. can these wrasse and the Hermit Crab coexist?

I had a Lunar that did not bother hermits at all, may have just been lucky though.

My lunar wiped out every crab and snail I put in the tank.

i would think that you would only end up with a shell so get one with a pretty shell and you will have something to remember the hermit from

The lunar is not reef safe. It will eat everything.

I STUPIDLY dropped a Lunar into my 300 reef.

PLEASE do NOT EVER... never never EVER do that.

He has decimated every INVERT in the tank. The guy eats HERMITS like its his job......

oh yeah it is..

My sixline doesn't bother them, but any larger wrasse will.

I had a blue head that would leave hermits alone.
