hi everyone,

Just need help in identifying or just plainly know if I should keep this Hermit Crab/s. Found them on the beach in Calatagan. Thanks in advance!

Yes... Supplement mo lang ng seaweed kapag naubos na niya ang algae sa tank, at maglagay ng maraming empty snail shells para hindi niya patayin ang mga snails mo...

ok, are they safe even for corals?
lastly, posible kaya na mga Anthias ko ang nagteterrorize to death ng small fishes? (firefish, etc)

They may be safe for corals... MAYBE... but they are crabs and will consume what ever life they can find on your rocks and will diminish the diversity of life in your tank. If you are only interested in corals, then you should be okay but it is something you should keep an eye on. Specially if you found it near the shore as such creatures tend to be very hardy and not picky about what they eat.

Sa death ng small fishes mo, bka hindi sila makakain dahil nauubusan sila ng food, mabilis kc kumain ang mga anthias, they should be fed atleast 2x a day., mabilis metabolism(mabilis magutom) nila kc very active sila...AFAIK, nd agressive ang mga anthias...
Sa hermit crab mo, best options mo for CUC will be snails...or you could use copepods(asuming maraming kang live rocks at cycling ka pa lng para makapag establish ng magandang colony bago papakin ng mga isda ), yes i also consider them as CUC(detrivores,), enjoyable pa na snacks for ur fishes...
