Do hearmit crabs get along with snails?
I would imagine they would be okay as long as you fed the crab well, if the crab gets hungry well - the snail would be fair game - since crabs don't really care whether it is an animal or a plant that they eat and in the water they feed on mollusks or what ever they can get a hold of.

Can land hermit crabs breath under water?
In oxygenated water hermit crabs can survive for a short time. Straws can stay under the longest as their modified gills most closely resemble marine hermit crab gills. However, the time varies between the species. Generally a hermit crab will only be under for a minute or two. As long as your pool has an easy way for crabs to get out they are good at regulating when they have been under too long. A hermit crab will not drown if he has a way to climb out.

Are the hermit crabs are dangerous when they are not in the cage?
Hermit crabs are pretty safe creatures. When handling them out of their habitat, be calm and they shouldn't pinch you. If they do pinch you, stay calm and wait for the crab to feel comfortable again so they will let go. Another thing you could try to get them to let go is slowly lowering your hand into their habitat so they smell it and will feel more at ease. I don't recommend spraying the crab with water if it is pinching you. That normally scares them causing them to hold on longer.
How many legs does a Female hermit crab have?
2 clawsLand hermit crabs have 2 claws. The larger claw is used for defense and to cover the hole opening of their shell for protection. It is also used to assist with climbing and the one they normally hold on with. It also breaks chunks of food off for easier eating which is then broken again with the smaller claw and passed to the mouth. The smaller claw is mainly used to break food for eating.
