Re: HELP! Pyshco/Agressive Jumbo :(

I have a twenty gallon long, the substrate 7'' deep, my in-tank temp is 75 degrees. All of my hermits have a complete diet of shrimp, veggies, fruits, nuts and other hermit-safe foods. With all this being said.. It seems like an act of aggression to me.. D:

HELP! Pyshco/Agressive Jumbo :(

I adopted a female jumbo about a year ago, since then she has killed and eaten all of my crabs. I'm not sure if this an act of aggression, or if this crab as psychological issues? Please help. This crab has been a nightmare :(

Re: Traveling with hermits, how do I keep them alive??

Ok! thanks so much! I'm sure it'll be fine. I was just worried about it, like all hermit crab parents do about their shell babies :crabblush:

She's about one inch in length,( she's the smallest hermit I've ever owned!) But, anyways yes, she digs burrows all the time.. but don't hermit crabs tend to eat a lot before they molt?

Hermit Crab hasnt eaten in 3 weeks! Help!

I adopted 1-year old female equadorian about a month ago, she was eating normally for awhile, then she just stopped! I haven't changed anything in their diet, but I still can't figure out what would cause her to stop. Recently she started staying in her shell and being very sluggish.. what do I do???
