Apologies if this has been asked a bunch or if it is a dumb question.
I heard that hermit crabs are good for cleaning up excess food and bugs in the enclosure. Since they are nocturnal and would need a separate area that the tortoise cant reach, such as an elevated substrate, they wouldn't interact much and it the crab wouldn't really think to mess with the tort.
Is there any truth to this? Does anyone here have any success keeping hermits with a leopard? Or is it simply too much of a hassle?
