Okey so Squirtle is molting, he/she is still down so I think it has been like...4 days? I am not expecting for him to come up any time soon but I needed to ask something. After he has molted do I put him in a diferent tank? I heird that some people let there hermies stay in the tank with the others all the time and I have also heird that they will keep them in a separet tank and finely, someone tould me that they would put there hermie in the same tank with the others but put it in a different on when they were asleep or away. But arn't hermies nocturnal? So wouldn't it be sleeping during the day and wanting to hang out with the others at night? I stay up around 10:45 every night so is that late enuf for them to play then sleep again? I am SO confused!

When a hermie comes up from a molt, they have already eaten their exo and is about ready for the world on top. They should be hardened and there should be no problem. No need to separate them. No need to ISO them.
The trick is to make sure you are feeding all the hermies with good nutritional foods. River shrimp, krill, fresh fruits, even sardines. With good foods offered, they are happy.

Thank you! I thought they came up then they hardened.
