Sooo my one hermit crab just dug down in the sand and I think shes going to molt. She doesn't really dig around much so Im pretty sure shes going to molt. I didn't detect any molting signs so I didn't put her in a different tank. My other hermit crab loves to dig around and Im afraid that he's going to mess with her when she's molting. What should I do?

You can tell her this...
Its not at all necessary to iso a molter. If the sub is deep enough the molter should be safe! Keep a close eye if you see any violence then iso one or the other, the whole act of iso-ing a molter can cause more stress. Molting is just as stressful for us as the crabs! We worry about our babies probably more than they do while they are down!

Hope this helps ;)
