Crab species

Post by otrimi_everplayful » Tue Apr 11, 2023 1:06 pm

What would be the smallest and/or best crab species for a new owner? I’m looking to get a couple hermit crabs soon and am not sure what species I should get.


Thx!

If you live in the US, you are most likely to find Purple Pinchers, which also happen to be the easiest to keep.
