Ecuadorian crabs and purple pinchers may not get along well if housed together, as they have different habitat needs and territorial behaviors. Ecuadorian crabs are typically more social and thrive in groups, while purple pinchers can be more aggressive and territorial. If kept in the same environment, there is a risk of stress or aggression, leading to potential conflicts. It's generally best to house them separately to ensure the well-being of both species.

No, but this means you have a Purple Pincher Hermmie. I have one too, his name is Taco<3. But, anyways, to tell if you're Hermmie is a boy or girl you will have to look closely when it is out of it's shell a bit. There will be a hole at the base of its back set of legs ( not sure what side.. ) If it were to be a female. If it doesn't have these holes you are an owner of a Purple Pincher Male Hermit Crab!
