Be sure and get some of these.
Thanks for the tip.

Are micro-hermits smaller (and less bully-ish) than typical hermits? I ask because I always read that hermits can be trouble makers toward small inverts, picking on snails and causing some corals to slime when they walk all over them. I now have 3 red-legged hermits that are very small, and somewhat harmless, but their contribution to the tank is not obvious. I have found them picking on some overturned Astraea in the past.

The micro-hermits sound very cool.
