I have crushed oyster shells mixed in my substrate. I also use calcium sand. Looking back, using calcium sand wasn't the best idea, because it's so expensive, but it works! I assume my crabs also get some calcium from the exoskeletons on the shrimp I feed them. I will occasionally put cuttle bone in my crabitat, but my crabs have never seemed to take a liking to it. I also have the cutest calcium chew toys that my crabs seem to love. You can see claw marks all over them!
