Crab is on the roof of my crabitat upside down!
IDK how to help him or if he needs help:( he is unable to climb down, he managed to get up in a sneaky way ...
Re: Crab is on the roof of my crabitat upside down!
I also can't pick him up off of it because he's pinching the wire top
Re: Crab is on the roof of my crabitat upside down!

Mine like to gracefully leap from the lid into the water dishes.
When I first started crabbing, I would always pry them off the lid because I would worry. Now my theory is if they got themselves up there, they can get themselves down one way or another.

Crabbing since July 2014! 75 gallon with 12 Purple Pinchers.

yup, mine do it too. I only worry when they push the heat lamp and climb through the small space to the outside top of the tank.
He will come/fall down when he is ready.

I think this is one of those first kid/third kid type things. Everyone freaks out the first time they see their hermits do it. By the time you've had them for a while you'll start to roll your eyes at them instead!

My big and small crabs do that, manage to get down safe and sound all by themselves. The lid is just another climber to them, everything is lol
