So far my guys have been relatively tidy. I'm sure that will change once they settle in more lol

I spill water all down the glass, and it gets a little mildewy from the humidity, and if I run the humidifier there is a white dust that sticks to the glass. The crabs just toss some substrate up high and make ditches. That's peanuts in comparison. ;)

Yep. The big tank takes a gallon of water every day in the middle of winter, so I can't afford to use distilled.

Fun fact - when I had a fan in the tank and ran the humidifier, I got stalactites to form on the fan! :lol:

Cool. :banana:

If you let instant ocean salt water dry out, it will form salt crystals.
I'll try to get those salt crystals to grow more.

So far, mine only seem to knock over the cuttlebone pieces. I'm sure that won't last long heh
