HCA: Hermit Crab Association

So lush! I’d like to use more greenery but space is always so tight.

Curious- do you also put a plug in the bottom in order to drain the water?

Sounds like he’s getting comfortable now so I wouldn’t worry. My newest crab has a shy personality but my eldest gives zero fs! They will relax eventually.
