New crab owner

Post by 57chevygirl » Wed Jun 05, 2024 9:11 pm

Hi! I currently have 2 hermit crabs. 1 was abandoned on a shelf in a pet store I shop at. I agreed to take him, bought a friend to go with him. They currently have a 10 gallon basic set up for the first few weeks. Currently planning and amassing supplies to move them to a 20 gallon long. Wish me luck!

Just a heads up, hermit crabs take a lot of work to make sure they are in the right conditions, but check out the care sheet and keep us posted, good luck!! Dont be afraid to ask questions!

Welcome to crabbing and to the site! I had my first two crabs in a ten gallon for 2 or 3 years before I upgraded to a 20 gallon.
