Planting seeds?
What kind of seeds, besides Chia seeds, can I plant in my crab tank? I wanted to try some easy things first, but I wasnt too sure what was safe plant wise.
Thanks!

Re: Planting seeds?
I had a leftover seed mix from my budgie that I feed the crabs, and the seeds start sprouting when knocked out of the bowl. You can look at those commercial seed mixes. They're mostly millet, maybe some flax seed... pretty much the same stuff on their approved foods list.

Re: Planting seeds?
So I planted some chia seeds today, and upgraded a few things in the tank! So excited! I dont know how to post pictures, but heres what I did:
I bought a shower caddy that hangs off the side and bought some moss and soaked it then put it in the shower caddy.
I bought a plastic container that has two separate dishes connected in the middle, if that makes sense? So now they have deep enough pools
I bought 2 Es today too!!

Re: Planting seeds?
Actually, I'm not sure how to post pictures on this site, either. Does anyone have a link to a thread explaining how to do that?

Thanks! I actually figured it out last night when somebody else's thread showed a link to a site called postimage. Now I just have to keep tinkering w/ my avatar. (I found the thread explaining it last night, but I ran out of steam.)
Thanks!

Re: Planting seeds?
I use flax seeds, wheat grass, black chia, soy beans and "cat grass" . That's what I have planted and sprouted for them
