my humidity is always at least 80% and my temperature is typically around 80 degrees
my issue is that my crabs seem to be happier and more active when the temp is on the lower side (closer to 75 degrees) and are less active, have less appetite, etc when the temp is higher (anywhere above 80 degrees)
i want them to be comfortable, however i don't want to risk hurting them with a low temp. any suggestions??

Re: temperature issues
If they seem more responsive at a lower temp, then I personally think its fine to keep them at such. Crabs have their own little preferences, and what works for one may not work for all....
