Freeze Dried Medley for Aquatic Turtles

[NLindsey921]

So I found this food at petsmart. It's meant for turtles but I matched it against the safe food list and all ingredients were included. It contains shrimp, meal-worms and crickets. My crabs love it. They have already gone through a third of the jar. It contains no preservatives or anything. It's all natural.

Yep. There are a few other safe commercial foods listed here: Commercial Foods. It also talks about which ones to avoid.

*Please note that none of these should be considered a complete diet.

I have a variety of items that i feed them. A bunch of different things from the hermit crab patch that includes their basic diet, surf n turf, calcium supplement and several different treats they offer.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you didn't. I added that bit just to be clear about the safe commercial foods list for anyone new to crabbing that might be reading.

Makes sense. I was just clarifying. I only feed them this specific food once or twice a week. Most of the time they have the basic diet or surf n turf in their bowl. I also give them a bowl of fruit treat or color enhancer. and i give them a small clam shell of calcium supplement or powdered coral calcium. They just seem to love the turtle food best. I'll get two or three crabs trying to crowd into the bowl at the same time and ill find pieces of shrimp stashed all over the tank.
