29 Gallon Setup

Post by frog » Sun May 08, 2016 11:14 am

This is my setup right now. It's a pretty small for the number of crabs I have. :oops: I'm going to get them a heat bulb and maybe some more eco earth..maybe some moss and dried leaves. Idk any suggestions on how to improve my setup are appreciated. :)

Do you have any pictures? And what are some more details on your crabitat?

I like it! Looks very nice. If you are looking to add some more stuff, maybe some cork flats along the back wall for them to climb on? Or hang some plants along the back wall. Just thoughts! :)

Uuu theres 7 inches of eco earth and sand. the bigger pool is the salt water. they have a uth on the side. it stays pretty humid but the heat is too low on the opposite side of the uth. i've had hermit crabs for four years.
