I want to share this, and ask if it is possible. I have a couple of hermits in my reef it appears maybe two have paired up. I hardly ever see them apart from each other. Look at them on a date by the torch coral.

I know hermits will sometimes breed in our tanks, but I don't know about them "pairing" and sticking around each other constantly. So, here's a bump to hopefully find someone who knows.

Yes they probably just pairing up as you say to devour a dead carcass or similar, you may find snails if you have any seem to be attractive to those carcuss also

It could be he wants the shell the other ones is in. I've never seen them do it with a hermit in shell but I've seen them battle over empty shells.
