Week Long Vacation-ASAP

Post by Mayo_Girl_1 » Thu Jun 24, 2021 10:37 pm

Hi,
I am going on a week-long vacation starting this weekend. There will be nobody at my house to refill/change food/water. Does anyone have suggestions for tank maintenance while I am away? Help is appreciated, ASAP, please. I have dried foods, but I am mostly worried about water levels and humidity.

Peace,

I have left my crabs many times for a week or so. I leave lots of dried food, it will be moldy when you get back but that's okay it won't harm them.
Be sure you have large enough water pools, and that they won't tip over.
Nothing you can do to change the heat and humidity while you are away - hopefully it has been stable for a while and won't be a problem while you're gone.

Thanks! The heat and humidity is usually stable. I do have a variety of dried foods, so the food will hopefully be ok.
