HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Woke up this morning and found it resting in some moss. I cleaned out 4 shells and gave them a dip, then took out the crab and gave it a bath. It had a lot more energy today. I put the shells in a dish with 1/2 inch of fresh declor and then put it back into the iso and came back in an hour and it ha...

I have a dish for them, but I lay some out on the sand too. They dont seem to have too much trouble digging in the dish. I put a shower caddy with suction cups up as well and dipped the shells in salt water and put my largest who just molted and loves his babylonian up there to see if he would take ...

It looks good, theres a lot of stuff in there! Egg crate is awsome! For bowls Tupperware dishes. I have zip ties craft mesh to mine.

I think I ordered that pack as well, very good deal for the price.

Looking good! I know all about the mess and indecision. I just finished bulding an aquarium stand and setting up a 75 and I'm so relieved its fi ally finished. My room is and will probably stay a mess for a while.

I started with a 10, then a 20 long, 40 breeder and now 75.

Soooo cute!

I gave it some egg and eggshell and moved it's exo to right near it, and covered it in a cocohut. I think It ate some exo last night, maybe some egg, it's tucked back in the shell chilling now.

S/he is just hanging out in that same spot. I'm trying to balance leaving it be and checking on it. I remind myself that it has molted bunches of time before and obviously felt comfortable enough to molt at the bottom of that paper towel pile in the tote. I covered the tote with a towel. Will he dig...

I don't think I've ever had an original idea, they all come from pics from the picture and DIY section. Egg crate is amazing! I just lined the sides and back of the tank and all but 1 of the 9 I just introduced crawled all the way to the top shortly after being put in the tank. I have shorter puces ...

Looking good! Did the filter trick end up working?

Yes it did, thank you!

I got to the tapetalk picture limit, but took the free trail and thier service is only a buck a month so I can live with that to post my bazillion pictures... I'll start a new thread soon I think. Here's the last bit of the tank to completion. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191227/fc30e8003f417a...

He moved! I put in a shell with some honey and crushed up some cuttlebone into the dry food. I put in some grapes, blueberry, apple. He's just kinda sitting there moving his antennae a bit. There's some moss in there too.

16. Please describe the emergency situation in detail. I was setting up my 75 gal. I am on the last crab in the tote I had been keeping this batch of 1 large 2 med and 2 micro/tiny. I just picked these guys up maybe 3 days ago. I get to the last one (the smallest he's micro or teeny) and at first I...
