Please pick up a thermometer so you can be sure temperatures are within a safe range. For PPs this is 75-85F. Take a look at the article on salt water to be sure you're offering the proper type. For humidity have you tried adding bubblers to the pools? Moss pits? Have you tested your hygrometer ?[/q...

Hi! So I've been having a problem with a "nudist" crab. He seems fine with being naked...did it 2 days before I forced him in a shell. He stayed in that shell for a few weeks then got naked again...forced him back in his shell then a few days later found him in a different shell in the shell shop so...

Got some pools created out of the mini paint roller trays. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c30/Dougie085/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160618_040359_zps2rizjs2c.jpg Finishing up the stand tomorrow and got all the sand and what not. I need to glue in the corner brackets still though. Omg great idea! I'm ...

That's great that Uno is getting hard and doing his post molt. Yea I wouldn't worry about Geoffrey just yet. Peanut was down for 8 weeks. And if this is his first molt with you he could be down for awhile. What Uno is doing above ground is what Geoffrey is doing under ground. It's hard not to worry...

They have a proper tank for them and they always ask me what I think of their operation. I seriously have had Donkey Socks for 6 months and this is the first tim...
