My Updated Crabitat Conditions by KyMart

[KyMart]

1. What kind of substrate is used in your tank and how deep is it? I currently have 100 lbs of play sand and 3 bricks of Eco Earth in my tank, this is about 8 inches of substrate.

2. Do you have gauges in the tank to measure temperature and humidity? If so, where are they located and what temperature and humidity do they usually read?
It is located in the back left corner of the tank, the moss pit is in the back right side of the tank so I wanted it to be far enough away from it so it was more accurate on the humidity of the tank. It usually reads 80° F temp and 80% humidity, but this fluctuates a degree or to down and up as well as a precent down or up and a precent down or up.

3. Is a heat source used in the tank? If so, what?
I have a 11x35 ultratherm along the back of my tank.

4. What types of water are available (fresh or salt) and how is the water treated (what brands of dechlorinator or salt mix and what ratio is used to mix it)?
I use prime for fresh water and do a drop per two cups because I can't get less than that (I was informed that this is ok and can't hurt them). I use instant ocean for salt water and follow the instructions on the back.
5. What kinds of food do you feed and how often is it replaced? I make my own food, and offer fruit and veggies in a separate dish, but I also offer and/or mix in foods from CrabPax on Esty! I change my food a few times a week but I replace the fruits/veggies when they get moldy!

6. How long have you had the crab and what species is it, if known? I have had 2/3 of my crabs for over two months, and my newer crabs for a few weeks now!

7. Has your crab molted, and how long ago did it happen? Frog molted a few weeks ago, and Fox and Bug came up from a molt just a few days ago!

8. What type of housing are the crabs kept in, what size is it and what kind of lid is on the housing? My crabs are kept in a 40 gallon breeder tank with a glass lid

9. How many crabs are in the tank and about how large are they? There are currently three crabs in my tank, two mediums, and one teeny.

10. How many extra shells are usually kept in the tank, if any? As of today I have 29 extra shells in my tank.

11. Have there been any fumes or chemicals near the crabitat recently? No.

12. How often do you clean the tank and how? Every other week and I just clean up and wipe stuff down as needed, I used to scoop the sand but due to my new tanks size I am looking into getting isopods.

13. Are sponges used in the water dish? If so, how are they cleaned? No, but one is in the tank dry for munching on.

14. Has anything new been added to your crabitat recently? More shells today, and umm everything because I just got it set up!

15. Is there any other information you would like to share that might be helpful (anything that is regularly part of your crab care, playtime, bathing, etc.)? Frog loves playtime and comes to me, he's my little bird because he perches on my finger like one!

All of that sounds great!

One thing I wanted to clarify--you should be dechlorinating both your fresh water and your salt water.
