Are the hermits Scarlet Hermits or just Red Legs? Google the names if you're not sure.

From my experience the scarlet's aren't going to be nearly as active as red legs or blue legs. I've had scarlets camp out for a few days on a coral before.... not eating it, just hanging out.
You should pick up a couple of blue legs to add also they're the most active and in my experience, the safest.
