Tanks

Hello! I recently upgraded my crabs to a 35 gallon tank and I’m looking for some constructive criticism! I have two water dishes ( one salt and one fresh water) that are deep enough for my largest crab to completely submerge. I have three crabs: Flynn (medium), Stanley (small), and Stevie (small).
I also feed my crabs fresh food and protein everyday.
The substrate is coconut fiber.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated!
Also, my apologies if the glass looks dirty ( I still need to clean the outside a bit) Image

that tank is awesome! my only concern would be if the hermit crabs cannot dig under the coconut fiber without it collapsing,(forgive me if im wrong, i alwase mix my coco fiber with sand so idk how it is alone) so i would probably mix some sand in or have a section of just sand. otherwise, i love your tank, your hermit crabs are lucky!

Coco fiber alone can be used but it’s a little more finicky to maintain. Generally it’s easier to take care of when mixed with sand
