hermies and fiddlers?

For discussion and photos of all of the non-hermit crab pets we hold dear, including other crab species.

Weird, isn't it? That the hermies like the pool better than the fids, who need it most. OH well. About the feeding - I've seen one of my fids in the hermits' food bowl a couple of times, but I've also tried putting it in the sand and moss right around the pool, which did nothing. As I've said, feeding them in the water has been most successful for me, but if it's not working for you, then I guess you'll just have to figure out their own individual preferences. Both of mine have, unfortunately, lost their big claws, but other than that are actually much more active than they used to be. Btw, nice pics - dirty glass around a brackish pond is inevitable (as I've found out) and is nearly impossible to keep clean.
