I found a site just the other day that sells hermits at 10 for £10, only thing is, i can't remember which one it was, i will try to find it agian for you if you want

I just found Hermit crabs on ebay, 12 for £12.99 (buy it now price) the postage is about seven quid, pretty good hey, i have never ordered live stock off ebay myself so let me know how you do get on if you get them online

Iv ordered some hermits off ebay. 5 blue legs got 8 quid! You have to be careful with the bay stock that they are suitable for tropical marine tanks as im sure quite a few are just collected from UK shores and stuck on there. I got the coral i ordered couriered to me and the crabs are coming first class special del by royal mail.

There is an ebay shop that sells at very reasonable prices but unless you intend to buy a lot then its £8 to post one ebay item or £20 for as many as you want, so the cheap price is cancelled out by the postage

place where i work sells hermits at 3.50 each n 2.50 for astrea snails (theyre labelled as turbo but theyre not)

i coulda probably bought them for you with my staff discount then you pick them up from me the same day?

 

[ben1987]

thats very kind of you. you shops cheaper than my local one anyway! a few pence off a fiver per hermit.
