Water Dish Emergency

Post by Zinger5335 » Mon Jul 02, 2018 11:23 am

Hey everyone! So currently, in my 10 gallon tank which houses two female hermit crabs, I have two cheapy bowls. They are smaller and are such bad quality that they are actually starting to crack. So, I need new bowls ASAP. They can’t be very large because I don’t have too much room but I was wondering if any of you had recommendations?

I would suggest using Tupperware containers, they are easy to install and remove.
You will need to double them up to prevent any dangers in case there are tunnels below.

Agreed! You can find them for cheap too! Don’t use water bowls that are cracking. If they leak into the substrate that can lead to flooding! :)
