Salt Water Opinions

Post by Gagabond » Fri Jan 10, 2025 2:11 pm

I posted this on mchat, but I think I needed to choose new topic. Couldn't figure out how to delete original 🙄😳

Hello. I plan to get a couple of hermies as soon as I finish my research and have a crabitat set up and ready. I was looking to use instant ocean for salt mix, but I saw this Fritz Aquatics Hermit Crab Salt Water, 16.9 fl. oz. https://a.co/d/cwmR2vj and am curious if anyone has used it with good results. They sell it at Petco, but I couldn't share it from there. TIA!

No idea on this one, however hermit crab products have a history of not matching the ocean water we want to replicate. Label does say it has trace minerals but without more information it’s hard to evaluate. A $10 box of Instant Ocean would better suit the crabs and be more economical longterm
