90 gallon set up

Post by CrabbyMom33 » Sun Sep 20, 2020 8:40 am

Here's my 90 gallon that I just did a full substrate change on this week and set back up with updated tank decorations. Sorry about the monitor reflection on the left of the tank. The color difference on the two sides is due to my UVB bulb on the left which puts off a more yellow light. I have 12 inches of substrate. The left side has a moss pit on top of a PVC frame that goes to the bottom of the tank so it can't sink in the sand over time. Plus, under the frame gives them a place to hide. The right side in the back is a shell shop on top of a shorter PVC frame. Lots of cork and cholla for climbing, plus a big sea sponge.

The links worked and the tank looks great! Love all the Cholla wood!

I love the cholla highway you have in there. It looks amazing.

B. E. A. UTIFUL! I love the deep sub and how 'full' everything looks. No wasted space always looks good. How big are your crabs?

Thanks! My crabs are medium to large, with my biggest one at the upper end of the large range. I posted pictures of them a couple of posts down in "My Hermit Crab Crew" viewtopic.php?f=8&t=123632

It's on a custom built wooden aquarium stand that I bought used when I go the 90 gallon tank.
