HCA: Hermit Crab Association

So I recently upgraded tanks 30 gallon Long. I have everything set up the way it should be (thanks to this amazing site!!) and the temp/humi is around 80-85. I put everyone (7) in a few weeks ago and they all dug under. I only see one or two, usually at night. There is one that is usually out and sl...

So on the back of the Primer it says a cap full 5 ml per 50 gallons? So would adding a few drops per gallon be ok? Should I give all my crabbies a quick rinse before putting them in a new tank too?

I have another question. I know I just keep going and going lol The UTH that I bought doesn't have a sticky adhesive. Is it safe to tape it to the back side of the tank? It's a 6x23 from Reptile Basics. Obviously it can't go under the tank but I want to make sure it can still transfer heat well bein...

I bought some wood to place in their tank. I first got cholla which they liked but I wanted something bigger so I got a Mopani log. I know the cholla is ok but what about the other? Should I boil them in SW before putting in tank like everything else?

I will keep in mind they will need more room but as of now (with there size) they should be alright. They cuddle ...

So I just ordered Instant Ocean and Primer for the water as well. I will be picking up my 30 gallon tank tonight. Hopefully everyone is up and moving around so they can move out. They like the bury themselves during the day if they can't get in the coconut (have more hiding placing available in thei...

I bought some API Aquarium Salt but I don't think it is sea salt. Does anyone have any opinions on it? I have already spent tons on these crabs the month I have had them. The Fluker's Crab drinking salt went fast so I tried to get a large quantity for a good price but think I made a mistake.

I am a new hermie parent and I bought some food on Amazon called JurassiDiet? I have been doing tons of research and am thinking maybe it wasn't a great choice. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on that. I'm also upgrading to a 29 gallon tank and am looking into UTH that are would ...
