Crabitat is missing the secret ingredient

Title pretty much sums it up- I feel like my crabitat is missing something... I just can't figure out what. It's a 10 gallon tank and I have small 2 hermits, 1 of which has buried itself and I haven't seen it since I got it. My other crab is in the log hideaway so you can't see it in the picture.

Here's a picture of my crabitat: https://hopingforhermitheaven.tumblr.co ... 6895563138


The conditions are good, it's at 81 degrees and 82% humidity, the crabitat has over 6" substrate, saltwater/freshwater (I just switched to Instant Ocean and Prime), fresh food (in the dish currently is quinoa, red quinoa, minced broccoli, arugula, and green apple) and a chia seed garden in between the water dishes- nothing has sprouted yet. It has extra shells, cholla wood, 2 fake plants, log hideaway, climbing rope in the back, and a cuttlebone piece as well as 2 large leaves that were marketed towards hermit crabs on amazon....heh.

I know it can't be just me, like what the heck is it missing?
Thanks everyone!

Why do you think something is missing? Sounds good.

Do you have an UTH on the back? Are you giving them proteins? Is there a regulator set up?

Try a larger piece of cholla in the center of your tank to fill it out a little. Is that what you mean?
