Re: Question
Yes and yes and yes - mine love all three!
Keep in mind mealworms and superworms bury pretty much immediately and will turn into foul-smelling beetles in a few days. I'm honestly not sure if the crabs will eat the beetles, I've never tried. The worms need to be completely contained in a high-sided container or bowl until the crabs eat them, or they should be pre-killed before putting them in the tank to prevent this!
