renewed owner

Post by lemonlimebitters » Thu Jul 16, 2015 9:38 pm

so i had hermit crabs about 7 years ago when i was a very young teen. had two successful molts, however they all ended up passing away after 1.5 years. i blame being ignorant and having a correct set up (no heat or humidity). I had no money and my parents said no. no i am much more educated and responsible, in my 20s, and living in a flat where pet choices are limited. so i thought i would do it right this time.

So on the 15th i bought three small hermit crabs; Lemon, Lime, and Bitters. I aready had a 10 gallon tank set up with all the correct things (humidity, temp, food, water, and substrate). within an hour Bitters completely buried (still down so presuming hes molting. last night lemon buried too, after much digging around. so now i have one very lonely lime haha. hoping it all goes well this time :) any advice would be awesome :)
