What do marine hermit crabs eat?

Question

We are NOT talking about land hermit crabs, we are talking about the ones that live in the ocean.We found some in an ocean nearby and decided to write books about them. We need to know what they eat in the wild, not land hermit crabs, ocean!

So, please dont say fruit and veggitables, or hermit crab food. I have a feeling hermit crabs dont find hermit crab food in the wild.

If you answer my question correctly, I thank you.

Please say what your source is if you have one so we could find more information.

We meant me and my friend.

Thank you.

They're scavengers - they eat algae and dead fish.
