My double crabitat setup.

Post by JTKermie » Fri Sep 24, 2021 10:50 am

It will be a double at some point. I couldn't just leave the lower part of the stand empty. LOL

These are 29gal tanks on a double 20L/29/37 stand.

Two 29gals. 3 PPs in each.
~200gal of fish tanks. Mostly planted community tanks.
Multiple kiddos, doggies and kitties.

I've had my lower tank setup about a week. I moved 3 hermies from the top tank to the bottom as I saw them out and about. I have 6 crabs all together. All of them small. A few days in and I have zero signs of activity from either tank. All 6 crabs were store bought, which I have since learned is a horrible way to go.

The new set-up does look good even if there's no visible crabs haha

Thanks!!

Amazon dropped off my little USB powered wyze camera today. I just set it up on my lower tank in motion sensing mode for the night. We shall see!
