Where is the best place in NW Houston to but red and blue-leg hermit crabs? (Price-wise as well).

Not sure what dennis at FJW has in stock but he is usually well priced and well stocked

Check to make sure they are reef safe because I was told that one of those was not. Can't remember which one or if that is even correct.
Technically, I don't consider any crab reef safe, LOL. Hungry crabs = trouble for everything else in the tank. I finally figured out where fish have been disappearing to for the past few months, A CRAB!

Man that must have been a very hungry crab...... What kind was it?
A brown mithrax that hitchiked in my liverock a year ago. I saw it a few months later, it was pretty small. Then I saw it a few months after that, and was getting pretty big, and tried to catch it but no luck.
Two days ago, I saw it again, first time in a while. What was it doing? Having a meal of my yellowtail damsel, the very first SW fish I ever owned!
Im on a mission to get him now... Ive managed to rip off two legs so far, but no luck with a catch yet.

Some people use a glass jar and put a table shrimp in it they go in but they usually can't get out of a glass jar. It is usually tilted upwards like resting on a rock or something
Yep, tried that a few times already but keep catching only hermits. Just have to persevere I guess...
