Deciding which tank!
Posted: Thu Jul 11, 2019 12:00 pm
I am a new crab owner but I use to work at a pet specialty store so I have some experience caring for them.
We ended up getting some from a beach store on vacation that one of my kids picked out. Knowing they like buddies we ended up with 6
I am a huge fish enthusiast so I happen to have a few choices for tanks for them and ideas in mind!
The two I am considering is a 29g (then would upgrade overtime) or a 35g hexagon. The 29g has a larger footprint but the 35g is taller.
Of the two which do you all think would be most beneficial?
The crabs we got ended up with painted shells but I wanted the most active and healthy looking and wasn’t really considering shell
You can see approximately the size in this photo. This is just a temporary carrier to get some of them home (we have two separate containers to get them home so they aren’t so over crowded). Ignore the fact that he’s showing his new friends his ice cream lol
