However,  I was thinking they would be Ciliopagurus strigatus. Nonetheless, these guys are colorful and a surprising addition. These are identical to the more common Indo Calcinus elegans,  however the coloration is different. The blue bands on the typical C. elgans are a vibrant orange on this morph that is only found in Hawaii.  For more colorful Hermits check out this article: Beautiful Hermit Crabs [...] [...] The Hawaiian Hermits were purchased as  ”Halloween Hermits” which they are.

I picked up one of these at North American Fish Breeders in Toronto and they didn't really know what kind it was. I had never seen a hermit crab with such bright colors before! I am keeping it in a 3 gallon tank to see how it behaves. It's quite a beauty! Thanks for posting the pic of the pylopaguropsis speciosa!

BTW, great website. The land hermit crashing the bubbly party was great. Hi Tai Haku,
