HCA: Hermit Crab Association

It looks awesome! Do you have a shell shop or nets for climbing? Shell shops really help with the space issue and the crabs don't seem to mind that shells are in one place.

My newbie Malibu decided to dig a small cave by the front of the tank. She comes out to drink and eat and returns to her little hole lol. I wish she'd just bury and molt already!

Amazing would love one!

Crabs love both the mixes! Also love the mineral supplement powder I got too!

I have bought from The Hermit Crab Patch multiple times! The foods listed on their website all have reviews by other crabbers which is how I usually decide on what to buy! I just bought the wings n' things food mix as well as the red white n' blueberries one! I am trying them out tonight and I will ...

Thanks everyone! For now I think I'm gonna go with the duct tape solution! I didn't even think of that! Once I get around to it I'll probably switch to the plexi-glass!

Hey guys I'm currently using an aquarium hood that has a hole from where the filter used to be. Any suggestions on how to cover it up!?

Perfect! I will be ordering one on Amazon shortly or I'll check my local Walmart first!

The best temperature for the tank is 80 degrees and 80 humidity. It is good that you have him separated. Maybe cover him with a hut so he feels more secure and make sure he has food and water nearby him. Water bottle caps/small shells work well for food and water dishes that are temporary.

Hey everyone! I just set up a new tank for my teeny's! It's a 10 gallon and I'm currently using an aquarium lid with a light for heat. I know I'm going to need better humidity, but I also need a way to measure it. What works best for you guys?!

Thanks!

I have used sand from ocean city, md. However, I made sure to go through it and bake it before putting it in the tank! Good Luck!

Thanks!!

Thanks guys! I wish I knew what brand my one tank is; however, it was from my dad's friend who used to breed fish. It almost looks like it was a custom build but it's pretty close to a 20 gallon high.

does anyone have any suggestions for what type of lid I should get for a 20 gallon high tank? I'm going to check the dimensions of a few I saw online. Just wanted to see if there were ones that stood out to anyone? Also I have a 10 gallon tank as well, if I were to set that one up would a regular aq...
