All crabs need a normal day/night cycle of lighting. Since they're nocturnal and wouldn't have uvb lights at night; no. They do not need any lights on at night.

Straws fit right in after the initial introduction!

Didn't get many photos but everybody is extremely active tonight and harmonious.
They seem very lively!
