    They do that all of the time. My urchin holds my Trochus snails hostage and even picked up my torch once.

    I know I just find it funny everytime I think the hermits enjoy it! Limpet seems pissed though I had to free him

    Me finding it funny depends on what it has picked up. Corals; no, hermits and snails; yes. I have some Scarlet hermits and it has capture them also. Theya re at least twice the size of any blue legs I have. Good thing removing the limpet it was unprotected.
