I just got 2 hermies. Homie and Hermie are their names. The first few days they were active and climbing all over the wire cage I got them in. Now I have a 10 gallon tank and they are not active at all. What is wrong?

sometimes crabs become very active when they are stressed. they are probably just calming down & settling in now that they are in better digs.
don't be surprised if you don't see them much during the day, since they are nocturnal.

Hello
Welcome to the HCA, and having hermies!
Is your tank properly set up? What is your humidity and temperature levels? Have you read our care guides?

yes if you are worried there is a crab care form in the emergency forum that you could fill out! that way we can see what your setup is and if there's anything you can improve on
