order
Every time I order I am excited when it arrives I get more than I expected. the items I order are great and well worth the price. My last order of blue legged crabs were great. They are always search and looking for things to clean. Thanks again for all you send, I am ordering again today.

Great deal on blue leg h. crabs
I purchased the 100 blue leg hermit crab daily deal and was very happy to see they were ALL alive and active when I received them. R2G provided great acclimation directions and even provided the tubing for drip acclimation! I was very impressed with the transaction process, shipment and delivery. I will most definitely purchase from R2G again.

blue leg hermit crabs
A little on the small side but awsome at what they do, they work in pack on one rock at a time getting it done.
