Show Me Your Tanks

Post by AwesomeHermit » Wed Mar 21, 2018 3:15 pm

Please post a pic of your tank here! I want to get some new ideas for my tank.
One or hopefully two Clypeatus
Goodbye my little E. See you soon.
Bye Fred. You lasted almost 4 years with me. Hope you're with my E now! See you soon Reeba as well. I can't believe I lost you only after a month.

How big is your tank? It looks so neat and roomy. Mine looks so crowded.

Thank you! I love the layout of your tank! It’s got a lot of hiding spots and climbing decor for your crabs :) my tank is a 75 gallon.

Thanks! I can't seem to stop putting things in there. And yet even though it's 90 gal it's crowded.

I think they enjoy it. But to be honest, I also get sad watching them because I know no matter how good it is it's nothing like them being free.

Haha thank you! I always wipe down the glass after I have sprayed the tank with water, to prevent water marks from appearing :)

Very true - I wish all my crabs could have the opportunity to be free again in their seashore homes - that’s why its great that everyone at the HCA takes great care of them, and gives them the best lives possible Image
