How to keep them off?

Sometimes i get a heart attack thinking my lobo is dying but then it gets puffier. I believe my hermit harass it. Its on a ceramic plate. How do i avoid that? Or is that nature

Remove the hermit.

Remove the hermit.

Or remove the lobo - or both! Problem solved — ha

Hermit crabs are not welcome in my tank. Too many potential problems re: coral.

In my experience, healthy Lobos should be puffy almost all the time. If they shrink once in a while, its fine. But if its happening daily or very regularly, I would try to move it or remove whatever is bothering it so that it is not constantly getting irritated. Just my 2 cents
