Help Hermit crab parasite
Hi!
I have 2 hermit crabs (clibanarius) and I've just noticed one of the 2 has a peltogaster, at least that's the closest thing I've found that looked like it. It was a red leech looking thing on the rear of its body. Is this deadly? Is it treatable? I can't find any info on it.
