HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Okay. Need to get a little more sand but day was good. Collected a few natural rocks and sticks. They are currently soaking in salt water to me Ill anything overnight. Also found some hymph net at Wal-Mart. And containers for their pool. A basic picture so far. I plan on hanging the net on the back...

I cover entire back side with ultratherm right above the substrate line. I am planning to get temperature controller that is used for reptile so it can be turn on and off automatically for warmer days.

I have zoomed uth on my backup 10g. most likely you will loose adhesive once you took it off. i had to tape it up on a new tank. make sure you dont cover entire pad up.

And the more stuff you have the more annoying it is because they knock it all over. Lol. This is simple and beautiful. I'd keep it! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-...

I personally would add something like a small shelf for a second level in there, to fill up the negative space - but no necessarily the floor. But I think it looks amazing as is, once the plant comes in, I'm sure that it will be the cherry on top. I was not sure that my hermies are destressing for ...

Since I only had smaller hermies, I do not have any large/jumbo shells for them. Does anybody have their favorite seller? I don't need fan...
