Hello everyone. I got a new hermit crab recently from PetCo, he or she is a “zebra” hermit crab. He has taken a liking to my Haitian Anemone. Constantly next to it, under it, or cuddling it. Is this normal and okay?

symbiotic relationship. The anemone eats falling debris and protects the hermit crab from parasites and predators. Some believe that hermit crabs kill anemones but I don't believe that
